initdb is failing on Centos 7 with 10.4 because the install

Changing the ownership fixes the problem, but the install
procedure should do this.
Are you using the PGDG repo packages, or the default CentOS repo
packages? You should use PGDG and those should install under
/var/lib/pgsql.

I was installing from source code, so I did a configure and a build (as postgres) and then an install (as root).
Then setting up the $DATADIR is on you:

Shouldn't this also be mentioned in the INSTALL file in the source directory then?
