Hi,
this is from HEAD of a few days ago, it looks suspicious to me.
8.2devel runs on port 5433.
markus@katerina2:~/pgsql$ bin/psql -p 5433 template1 markus
Welcome to psql 8.2devel, the PostgreSQL interactive terminal.
Type: \copyright for distribution terms
\h for help with SQL commands
\? for help with psql commands
\g or terminate with semicolon to execute query
\q to quit
template1=# create database test;
CREATE DATABASE
template1=# \c test
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"?
Previous connection kept
Why is it trying to use 5432? Am I missing something?
