weird initdb output
I wrote a script that creates a new database from an existing backup.
Works great on my machine. Another user tries to use it and sees the
following output from initdb:
could not change directory to "/root"
The files belonging to this database system will be owned by user
"postgres".
This user must also own the server process.
.
.
Why is it trying to change directory to /root??? Running as the
postgres user.
Any assistance would be appreciated.

Maybe if we could see the script?
