I’m installing postgresql in a O.S. Linux Ubuntu 6.06 and I
have the next printout at installation process:


Setting up postgresql-7.4 (7.4.12-3) ...
Error: cluster configuration already exists


I can’t find information about how I can solve the problem
at Internet and I can install/uninstall anythings.
