PostgreSQL version: 9.3.5
Operating system: Linux Mint x64 3.13.0-24-generic #47-Ubuntu
Description:
1. Either install fresh PostgreSQL on fresh OS, or just delete
`~/.psql_history`.
2. Run `~ $ psql` (assuming that permissions are already set up for your
user).
3. type any command;
4. Press Ctrl-D, or type "\q".
OBSERVED: warning
could not save history to file "/home/myuser/.psql_history": No such file or
directory
EXPECTED: info like:
Created "/home/myuser/.psql_history"
Because currently it sounds like it wasn't found, so history is lost
forever. Also, it happens on the very first run, when user hasn't had a
chance to screw up anything yet, but psql already throws errors.
