So, admittedly I don't have the slightest idea about the /dev/null issue. But that was actually only in a log from Matthias. From the bug trail I assume that you actually didn't have that problem?

So, as far as I can see the remaining issue is that the 8.3 cluster was created on port 5433, but 'psql' does not default to using this port (which it should).

 * Can you please confirm that "psql -l -p 5433" works?

 * Do you have a ~/.postgresqlrc, and does /etc/postgresql-common/user_clusters contains anything except comments?

 * Does "readlink /usr/bin/psql" print "../share/postgresql-common/pg_wrapper"?

Thank you!
