Difference between /usr/lib/ and /usr/local/ in installation of PostgreSQL? -


i reading thread , manual of postgresql 9.4. run

ps auxw |  grep postgres | grep -- -d 

but get

postgres 17340  0.0  0.5 226700 21756 ?        s    09:50   0:00 /usr/lib/postgresql/9.4/bin/postgres -d /var/lib/postgresql/9.4/main -c config_file=/etc/postgresql/9.4/main/postgresql.conf 

but default installation location should /usr/local/pgsql/ according manual @ file:///usr/share/doc/postgresql-doc-9.4/html/install-short.html.

it may possible database initdb in /usr/lib/ directory.

how can change installation location of postgresql?

the thread you're reading says installation directory /usr/local/pgsql when install source, suppose well. change directory make install uses installation, need specify --prefix argument configure:

./configure --prefix=/path/to/install make sudo make install 

ps: in case don't install source, refer documentation comes package manager.
