Wow, works like a treat!!

I'd definitely expect there to be only one way to do it, and for
`service postgresql start 9.3` to have the effect that `service
postgresql pgstart 9.3` has in your patch.

With much thanks,

Eoghan

Title:
  init.d script doesn't respect `version` argument

Status in postgresql-common package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Release: Ubuntu 15.04

  It seems that the current version of the /etc/init.d/postgresql script
  doesn't respect the `version` flag.  Help text states:

      Usage: /etc/init.d/postgresql {start|stop|restart|reload|force-
  reload|status} [version ..]

  But with 2 installations and called as follows:

      /etc/init.d/postgresql start 9.4

  or

     service postgresql start 9.4

  Both 9.4 and 9.3 are started, I expected just 9.4 to start.
