The PHP web app that I'm building uses PostgreSQL. Of course it won't
work right off the bat, so my web app is going to have to detect that
it has never been configured with a database and have to instruct the
sysop on what to do. What are developers in the PHP industry doing with
their installers to ensure everything with PostgreSQL is going to work
out right?

In particular I'm going to want the web app to have a local database
(by default), although a remote one is an option. The web app will
require a username and password to reach the database. What pg_hba.conf
configuration would you recommend most highly for new installations?
