I had to delete some directories after purging, then reinstallation
worked. I deleted:
rm -rf /usr/lib/postgresql/8.3/lib
/usr/share/postgresql/8.3/tsearch_data /usr/lib/postgresql/8.3
/usr/lib/postgresql /var/lib/postgresql
Probably just that first directory had to be deleted. After
That series of steps worked. Thanks for your help.
