Setting aside the fact that I don't even know what Cpanel is, I'm not
sure how this is practical. How many versions of Cpanel are there and
which versions of postgres do they ship? If Cpanel releases a new
version, do the postgresql docs needs to be updated?

The only people who can provide the documentation with any reasonable
accuracy are the makers of Cpanel themselves. And since they evidently
don't do it I'm not sure why we should do it for them.

For example, Debian has a README.Debian file with every package that
describes any special steps needed to get the lackage working. That's
the way it should be.

Have a nice day,
