I installed dtester with:
PYTHONPATH=~/pythonpath/lib/python2.6/site-packages/ python ./setup.py
install --prefix=/home/heikki/pythonpath/
And that worked. But when I try to run Kevin's test suite, I get this:
~/git-sandbox/postgresql/src/test/regress (serializable)$
PYTHONPATH=~/pythonpath/lib/python2.6/site-packages/ make dcheck
./pg_dtester.py --temp-install --top-builddir=../../.. \ --multibyte=

At that point I had no idea what's wrong.
PS. I tried "python ./setup.py dtest", mentioned in the README, and it
just said "invalid command 'dtest'". But I presume the installation
worked anyway.

Yeah, that was my impression too. (see my other post with WIP
implementation of that)
