The upgrade to postgresql 7 is broken rather horribly in several places
-- postinstall does not work, this has been noted as a bug on the
tracking system, though the posted fix (changed flags to dbinst) only
addresses part of the problem. The bug is now outstanding for over two
weeks.
I've resolved the issue on my own system by reverting to the following
frozen packages:
ecpg_6.5.3-18.deb
libpgperl_6.5.3-18.deb
libpgsql2_6.5.3-18.deb
libpgsql_6.3.2-16.1.deb
libpgtcl_6.5.3-18.deb
postgresql-client_6.5.3-18.deb
postgresql-contrib_6.5.3-18.deb
postgresql-dev_6.5.3-18.deb
postgresql-doc_6.5.3-18.deb
postgresql-pl_6.5.3-18.deb
postgresql-test_6.5.3-18.deb
postgresql_6.5.3-18.deb
...downloaded and installed with
dpkg -i --force-downgrade *.deb
...works
