Going through the PLPython threads on the Planet, I realized that I needed 
plpython.  So I rebuilt PG with python, expecting that I could then re-catalog 
the databases.  But, not.  initdb, wants the data directory, which is where the 
database files are, and doesn't run if it's not empty.  The data directories 
have descriptive names like 16431, etc.

These are only small test db's; losing them is not a big deal, but is there a 
way to get them back?

When I went to   createlang  I got the no "root" user message, which is why I 
went to look at initdb.  adduser says that postgres user exists, which makes 
sense.

thanks,
Robert
