Package: postgresql-8.0 Version: 8.0.3-12 Severity: important
Installing postgresql-8.0 creates /etc/passwd entry for user postgres with shell set to /bin/false -- this way it's impossible to su to user postgres to create users, databases etc. I suppose there are tools which can do this without shell but imho su-ing to user postgres is the most obvious, simplest (at least for software developer like me ;-) ) solution and therefore should be supported in default install.
