• If you see errors about missing packages, make sure that you have run aptitude update!

Database Locale

• Set the locale correctly -
  • For the US, generate both en_US and en_US.UTF-8, but (IMPORTANT) pick en_US as the default...

 dpkg-reconfigure locales

• if /etc/postgresql/8.3/main/postgresql.conf is already installed and has has lc_* = 'en_US.UTF-8', cluster will need to be dropped and re-initialized

pg_dropcluster 8.3 main --stop
pg_createcluster --locale en_US 8.3 main

Installation

Follow the regular installation instructions.
