After upgrade when I try to start postgresql-9.1 I get an error:

In /usr/share/zoneinfo/ I had a link:
lrwxrwxrwx   1 root root     1 Sep 12 19:16 posix -> .

Removing this directory allow me to start postgresql but I can not access my 
database:

On my working system the "posix" is not a link it is a directory with the same 
information (I think as /usr/share/zoneinfo/
