I don't know enough about tsearch, but is plpgsql a dependency? If not could 
you 
use the information here,

http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.3/interactive/manage-ag-templatedbs.html

to create a database template that has tsearch but not plpgsql and then create 
your demo db using it?

True but sometimes the error is that nothing happened. I have never found
