I have now tried at least 7 different install methods to get pg up and running
on Lion. I fear that my system is now thoroughly inoculated and will never be
able to run postgres/postgis.
I started with the pg mac installer / stack builder. That worked to get pg
installed, but could not get postgis installed.
I've now tried two different instructions using MacPort, Two using homebrew,
and two using some-other-macport-homebrew-like method.
NONE of them worked for me. I can see postgress running from the last install:

sameloyiv 39846 0.0 0.0 2455512 604 ?? Ss 9:02AM 0:00.12
postgres: writer process
But continue to see this when using psql:
psql: could not connect to server: No such file or directory
Is the server running locally and accepting
connections on Unix domain socket "/tmp/.s.PGSQL.5432"?
Is there anyone who has ever successfully gotten postgres/postGIS running on
Mac Lion? Really? How?
Is there a way to purge my system of all of the corrupted/bad installs and
start over? How?
How do I get pgadmin if I use homebrew/macports etc?
Would love to believe this is possible, as I cannot stand having to stop
whatever I'm doing every 3-4 days to repair Windows. I hate Windows. I loath
Windows, and would love to see the U.S. Economy rebound from all of the
production gained by everyone universally abandoning Windows…
