Hello Chris,

You're right, sorry about the breakage. As you noticed we are in an
in-between situation where the patch updating Postgresql package to use
"/var/run/postgresql" by default is only on core-updates, but the
service is already using it as a default on master.
This means that "createdb", "dropdb" and other Postgresql user tools
need to have an explicit "-h /var/run/postgresql" argument for now.
Until the package patch gets merged in the master branch, we could set
the "socket-directory" field of <postgresql-config-file> record to #f to
restore an acceptable default behaviour.
WDYT?
Sorry again for breaking things,
Mathieu
