This change is incorrect. pg_service.conf is never at
/etc/pg_service.conf. It would be at /etc/postgresql/pg_service.conf,
if you configured with --sysconfdir=/etc.

I think the intent of the original wording was that it was in the etc
directory relative to the installation root. I think that is more
correct than claiming that it is always in one particular location.
