NetBSD 1.5 and pkgsrc 12/06/00
>Description:
Line 33 of /usr/pkgsrc/databases/postgresql/pkg/INSTALL
mkdir -o ${PGHOME}
causes "user add" command on line 37 to fail because the home directory already exists. The INSTALL script does not check the return value of the "user add" command.

Install postgresql from recent pkgsrc on NetBSD 1.5
