[Pkg-postgresql-public] Bug#671915: Got the same problem

[Пушкин Сергей]

Package: postgresql-9.1
Version: 9.1.4-1
Severity: normal

Server error messages which comes before database connection seems to be  
localized
and displayed with '?' instead of letters both in client (local or remote  
- doesnt matter) messages and server log.

This problem first appear in postgresql-9.1 version 9.1.3-1
Previous version 9.1.2-4 found in debian snapshot displays messages in  
english.

how to reproduce:

install postgresql-9.1 and run psql with wrong credentials, will output  
broken error message:

# aptitude install postgresql-9.1

# psql
psql: ????:  ???? "root" ?? ??????????

after succesfull connection furher error messages are show normally with  
right locale and encoding:

# sudo -u postgres psql
psql (9.1.3, сервер 9.1.4)
Введите "help", чтобы получить справку.

postgres=# asdfad;
ОШИБКА:  ошибка синтаксиса (примерное положение: "asdfad")
СТРОКА 1: asdfad;
           ^
postgres=# \q

manually installing on the same computer postgresql-9.1_9.1.2-4_amd64.deb  
and running psql will
result in readable english error message:

# psql
psql: FATAL:  role "root" does not exist
