I have Lubuntu 14.04 (32-bit) on an i386 machine and have downloaded
the interactive installer by
EnterpriseDB for version 9.4.9 (postgresql-9.4.9-2-linux.run).
As my usual approach for installing on Linux I have always chosen to
install with PGDATA set as
"/var/lib/postgresql/9.4" but I notice that the interactive installer
prompts to use /opt rather
than /var.
What are the general thoughts regarding the recommended directory?
