[Pkg-postgresql-public] Bug#678626: php5-pgsql: can't connect to PostgreSQL 9.x

Thanks for the tip!

My bug report is therefore invalid. This behaviour is a bit disturbing
since 5433 is still used if the other version is removed afterwards (I
usually remove the older version of PostgreSQL when I notice I have
installed the new one) but I think there is no universal solution for
this.
