Re: pg_dumpall - Need advice

J,

Not using the debian packages myself, I'll take a guess that on line 2 of the
file: /etc/postgresql/postgresql.env it is specifiying the
/usr/lib/postgresql/bin/readpgenv for some function and you do not have the
readpgenv script/binary on your system, so it exits. Perhaps that file comes
with a package that did not get installed, though I would think debian's
package manager would not allow that behavior.
