i was beginning to think it'd never get to this:
_/_/_/ _/_/_/_/ _/_/ _/_/ _/_/_/ _/ _/ _/_/_/ _/
_/ _/ _/_/ _/_/ _/_/ _/ _/ _/ _/
_/ _/ _/ _/ _/ _/_/ _/_/_/ _/_/ _/_/_/ _/
_/ _/ _/ _/ _/ _/
just like star wars, rebel fighters in the trench heading towards
the exhaust port: "almost there almost there"
the "apt-get --reinstall" worked really well.
now there's something weird with the initlocation script, probably
a setting i've got going someplace.
as the initlocation script

Why, pray tell, are you trying to install RedHat postgresql RPMs on a Debian
system? Debian has postgresql 6.5.3 already, in frozen. What you are doing
with RPMs is just asking for trouble.
The easiest thing to do is just upgrade your whole system to frozen. If you
can't, then set up apt (/etc/
aaugh!
