PostgreSQL missing /etc/postgresql folder?

I have a fresh installation of Ubuntu 10.10 (amd64). Even though the Postgresql (8.4.5) server and client are installed, the postgresql directory in /etc folder is missing.

Any clues what could be cause of this problem.


Solution 1:

The solution was to reinstall after purging the packages.

sudo apt-get remove --purge postgresql-8.4

then

sudo apt-get install postgresql-8.4
