 After installing, the on-screen instructions say to do the following:

 {{{
 sudo mkdir -p /opt/local/var/db/postgresql91/defaultdb
 sudo chown postgres:postgres /opt/local/var/db/postgresql91/defaultdb
 sudo su postgres -c '/opt/local/lib/postgresql91/bin/initdb -D
 /opt/local/var/db/postgresql91/defaultdb'
 }}}

 However, I use a different umask than the default (I use 077). I had to
 use the following sequence:

 {{{
 umask 022

 sudo mkdir -p /opt/local/var/db/postgresql91/defaultdb
 sudo chown postgres:postgres /opt/local/var/db/postgresql91/defaultdb

 #because I was somewhere in my home directory when executing the initdb
 #command, it failed with "could not identify current directory: Permission
 denied".
 cd /

 sudo su postgres -c '/opt/local/lib/postgresql91/bin/initdb -D
 /opt/local/var/db/postgresql91/defaultdb'
 }}}

 I realize that my situation is strange enough that the maintainer might
 prefer to leave the post-install advice simple and straightforward.
