Package: postgresql-client Version: 7.4.7-6sarge1 Severity: minor Hi,
You cannot use the pg_service.conf functionality present in the Debian package. Example: $ PGDATABASE=test psql Welcome to psql 7.4.7, the PostgreSQL interactive terminal. <..snip...> $ PGSERVICE=test psql psql (pg_wrapper): No database specified If there was a service defined, then it would (possibly) define the database to connect to. pg_wrapper should continue if the PGSERVICE variable is defined. Next, if you provide a dummy dbname to get past pg_wrapper you get: $ PGSERVICE=test psql f psql: ERROR: Service file '/usr/etc/postgresql/pg_service.conf' not found The path is obviously bogus, evidently a broken SYSCONFPATH somewhere. I've filed this as minor given that obviously this feature is rarely used and these issues are probably fixed in later versions anyway.
