Anyone got a solution for this error:
----
initdb: pg_encoding failed
Perhaps you did not configure PostgreSQL for multibyte support or
the program was not successfully installed.
---
Here's what i wrote:
---
./configure --prefix=/usr/local/postgresql --enable-locale\
--enable-multibyte --with-odbc --with-tcl
make
make install
--
Everything should be ok, so..
HELP!!
..if it aint broke, tweak it.

Is your PATH pointing at the right set of Postgres executables?
I think that would happen if initdb finds a 'postgres' in PATH
that doesn't have pg_encoding along with it, which would happen
if that version weren't compiled with multibyte support...
