Hi Markus,

check pg_virtualenv(1), which apparently is a Debian thing.
It auto-creates and auto-deletes at the end, if desired, a
cluster and runs your program with suitable environment
variables to access that cluster, which includes choosing
an available port. This was in fact made for integration
testing, though I use it for quickly spinning up throwaway
DBs for one-shot tools as well.
bye,
