In Ubuntu I have this: $ type -path pg_restore /usr/bin/pg_restore $ file /usr/bin/pg_restore /usr/bin/pg_restore: symbolic link to ../share/postgresql-common/pg_wrapper $ file /usr/share/postgresql-common/pg_wrapper /usr/share/postgresql-common/pg_wrapper: Perl script text executable And that pg_wrapper thingie has the habit of completely fscking my connection options / service files ( even though I do not have a server installed, I only install teh client programs to connect to the remote servers ). You could check with type/file wether you have something similar.
