changing encoding of a postgres database

От

hi,

I recently did a dist-upgrade from sarge to etch on a server with a  
bunch of postgresql databases (7.4.9). Many of these had encoding set  
as unicode and contained a lot of unicode data. After the dist- 
upgrade, I find some of these databases are now encoded as latin1 -  
and I cannot properly retrieve the unicode data or add now unicode  
data. I tried pg_dump, dropdb, createdb with E=unicode and the  
restore with psql -f, but the restoration barfs on the first  
occurence of unicode data. Any solution?
