Bug reference: 2719
Logged by: Mareks Malnacs
Email address: mareksm (AT) gmail (DOT) com
PostgreSQL version: 8.2 beta 2
Operating system: macos x and solaris x86
Description: configure script does not accept --enable-locale
--enable-multibyte=UNICODE options
Details:

I've downloaded 8.2 beta 2 from
http://www.postgresql.org/ftp/source/v8.2beta2/ (from 24.10.2006) and now
configure script forbids me to use following options:

--enable-locale --enable-multibyte=UNICODE --enable-odbc --with-java
--enable-unicode-conversion

all of those options are not supported/necessary anymore (java and odbc
are now packaged seperately and the others are useless for a while now)

Quote:

From which w/o --enable-multibyte I can't use unicode (utf8) while creating
new database installation:

initdb -E UNICODE -A password -W

This command says that it will use C encoding instead of specified UNICODE,
which later on results in not usable database with a lot of localized
strings.

you probably want to set an appropriate (utf8) locale in your
environment too - and note that the actual error likely says "The
database cluster will be initialized with locale C" not "encoding".
Anyway that does not have anything to do with --enable-multibyte ...
