Package: postgresql Version: 8.3.5-1 Severity: wishlist
I installed 8.3 on lenny and discovered it is listening on 5433. I believe 5432 is the standard. This may have something to do with the fact that other versions of postgres were previously installed, though I believe I deleted them before installing 8.3. Regardless, a purge and reinstall later, 8.3 is now listening at 8432. Anyway, there really should be some documentation of the whys and wherefores of ports handling. There is a blog entry along these lines, though I haven't investigated whether the information is accurate - http://zbowling.com/blog/2008/11/13/debians-postgres-packages/ Something like this would be most useful.
