Thanks, Lamar. I upgraded the server package, and that appeared to work
just fine. Then I installed the others. Is 'initdb' the proper way to
restart everything, and creat a new /var/lib/pgsql? It's been a while since
I worked with postgres, but I need to really dig into app development now.

Thanks,
