[Bug 1797933] Re: psql requires '-h localhost' to run basic commands

[Andreas Hasenack]

This is not an issue with the postgresql packages shipped with Ubuntu:

trusty:
ubuntu at trusty-pgsql:~$ psql --version
psql (PostgreSQL) 9.3.24
ubuntu at trusty-pgsql:~$ l /etc/postgresql/9.3/main/postgresql.conf 
-rw-r--r-- 1 postgres postgres 20K Oct 18 17:59 /etc/postgresql/9.3/main/postgresql.conf
ubuntu at trusty-pgsql:~$ 


xenial:
ubuntu at xenial-pgsql:~$ psql --version
psql (PostgreSQL) 9.5.14
ubuntu at xenial-pgsql:~$ l /etc/postgresql/9.5/main/postgresql.conf 
-rw-r--r-- 1 postgres postgres 21K Oct 18 18:01 /etc/postgresql/9.5/main/postgresql.conf

bionic:
ubuntu at bionic-pgsql:~$ psql --version
psql (PostgreSQL) 10.5 (Ubuntu 10.5-0ubuntu0.18.04)
ubuntu at bionic-pgsql:~$ l /etc/postgresql/10/main/postgresql.conf 
-rw-r--r-- 1 postgres postgres 23K Oct 18 18:01 /etc/postgresql/10/main/postgresql.conf

I suggest you take this up to the pgdg apt repository maintainers.

Since I don't see evidence of a defect in Ubuntu packaging, I'll mark
this bug as invalid. If you think that's incorrect, please reopen it
with a comment stating the reasoning.

Thanks!
