Subject: problems with installing postgres

hi,

i have major problems installing pgsql on a mac using mac os x 10.2.8.
everytime i try to start initdb after finishing my installation the mac
says:
The files belonging to this database system will be owned by user
"postgres".
This user must also own the server process.

The database cluster will be initialized with locale de_DE.

fixing permissions on existing directory /usr/local/pgsql/data/... ok
creating directory /usr/local/pgsql/data//base... ok
creating directory /usr/local/pgsql/data//global... ok
creating directory /usr/local/pgsql/data//pg_xlog... ok
creating directory /usr/local/pgsql/data//pg_clog... ok
selecting default max_connections... 50
selecting default shared_buffers... 300
creating configuration files... ok
creating template1 database in /usr/local/pgsql/data//base/1... FATAL:
invalid value for parameter "lc_time": "de_DE"

initdb: failed

the postgre documentation does not give any answer how to initialize a
database without localization. do you have an idea, how to fix my
problem?

regards henning klein
