Hi,

        While I have not yet gotten gforge fully installed and working
        on my machine, I did work around the problem mentioned in this
        bug.

        I editted the pg_hba.conf file until the problem went away.
        First I tested connecting with this command line:

psql -h localhost -U gforge gforge

       Which produced the same error about IDENT as the install script
       was producing.  Then I su - postgres, and cd'd to data, and
       vi'd pg_hba.conf and added these lines, which are modifications
       of the line the the gforge install automatically adds:

host gforge gforge 192.168.1.57 255.255.255.255 trust
host gforge gforge 127.0.0.1 255.255.255.255 trust

       Note the "trust" which means it doesn't check the password, I'm
       not sure why I needed to do that, perhaps I entered the wrong
       password when in the configuration stage of installing gforge
       (but then there was no pre-existing gforge db or db user, so
       that should have created a db user with the same password,
       right ?)

       I will re-visit my postgres setup with an eye towards security
       when I get gforge working.

       Thanks for all the work on packaging gforge for debian.  If
       there were not a debian package for it, I would have been
       hesitent to attempt to use it because of the immense
       configuration task.
