[Bucardo-general] Unable to proceed with Bucardo installation

I'm recently installing Bucardo to work with PostgreSQL. I had trouble
installing Bucardo and the relevant libraries from packages, so I installed
them through apt-get instead.

My problem is that after I created a directory to act as its piddir (either
`/tmp/bucardo/` or `/var/run/bucardo/`) and proceed with the installation,
I received this error message:

    psql: FATAL: password authentication failed for user "postgres" Sorry,
unable to determine the database version.

I then rest the password for user postgres, as well as giving it a new
password, but the problem still remains. I've also deleted the password and
left it blank, but when I tried to proceed with the installation, I
received an error message saying

    psql: fe_sendauth: no password supplied

I've also edited the pg_hba.conf in both master and slave servers so that
it includes the lines:

# TYPE   DATABASE   USER       METHOD
local    all        postgres   ident
local    all        all        md5

and I tried restarting postgres and continuing with the installation, but I
keep on getting the same error message.

I'm using PSQL 9.1.14 and Bucardo 4.4.8 on Ubuntu Server 12.04, if that
helps.
