Tom,
Well, that does deserve investigation. But I've been initdb'ing frequently and not noticed any problems. What configure switches did you use exactly? Did you try to move the installation tree after configure?
Here's the issue: if you start initdb from a directory other than PGBASE, you can run into trouble:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/local/pg80b/bin> ./initdb -D ../data
initdb: file "/usr/local/pg80b/bin/share/postgresql/postgres.bki" does not exist
This means you have a corrupted installation or identified
the wrong directory with the invocation option -L.
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/local/pg80b/bin>
same problem here, but I did a trick, changed the $libdir in share/conversion_create.sql to full path to lib dir, and I did a symlink in bin to share.
