Gustaf,
See details of OS installation. It isn't that old.
root@newiuri:~# cat /etc/issue
Ubuntu 12.04.4 LTS \n \l
postgres@newiuri:~$ uname -a
Linux newiuri 2.6.32-22-pve #1 SMP Mon Jul 15 08:36:46 CEST 2013 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
Furthermore, after running apt-get again as per your notes I got warnings telling that postgresql-dev wether's missing or obsolete. it also indicates libpq-dev as a replacement. See bellow.
#####
root@newiuri:~# apt-get install postgresql postgresql-contrib postgresql-dev

Package postgresql-dev is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source
However the following packages replace it:
libpq-dev:i386 libpq-dev
E: Package 'postgresql-dev' has no installation candidate
#####
I installed it anyway. You can see bellow the default encoding's cuoriously set to ASCII.
#####
postgres@newiuri:~$ /usr/lib/postgresql/9.1/bin/initdb -D /var/lib/postgresql/9.1/main/
The files belonging to this database system will be owned by user "postgres".
This user must also own the server process.
The database cluster will be initialized with locale C.
The default database encoding has accordingly been set to SQL_ASCII.
The default text search configuration will be set to "english".
initdb: directory "/var/lib/postgresql/9.1/main" exists but is not empty
If you want to create a new database system, either remove or empty
the directory "/var/lib/postgresql/9.1/main" or run initdb
with an argument other than "/var/lib/postgresql/9.1/main".
postgres@newiuri:~$
#####
Moreover, I ran initdb command using -E argument
/usr/lib/postgresql/9.1/bin/initdb -E UTF8 -D /var/lib/postgresql/9.1/main/
Now, templates were properly encoded. OACS script finished successfuly!
Thanks
