Replace the apt-based PostgreSQL installation with pre-built binaries from github.com/theseus-rs/postgresql-binaries. This eliminates the apt dependency for PostgreSQL entirely. Key changes: - Download PostgreSQL 16.8.0 binaries from theseus-rs/postgresql-binaries - Verify downloads with hardcoded SHA256 checksums (linux/amd64 and linux/arm64) - Install to /opt/sqlc/postgresql (sqlc-specific directory) - Use pg_ctl and initdb directly instead of systemd/service for lifecycle - Run PostgreSQL as the current user (no postgres system user needed) - Configure pg_hba.conf and postgresql.conf programmatically https://claude.ai/code/session_018koD7tHEa2W5cXbiPPYatB

- Upgrade from PostgreSQL 16.8.0 to 18.2.0 with updated SHA256 checksums - Store PostgreSQL binaries in ~/.cache/sqlc/postgresql (via os.UserCacheDir) instead of /opt/sqlc/postgresql, eliminating the need for sudo to create the install directory https://claude.ai/code/session_018koD7tHEa2W5cXbiPPYatB
PostgreSQL 18 rejects --pwfile=/dev/null because the file is empty. Since we use --auth=trust for initial setup (and set the password afterward via ALTER USER), the --pwfile flag is unnecessary. https://claude.ai/code/session_018koD7tHEa2W5cXbiPPYatB
The prebuilt PostgreSQL 18 binary includes uuid-ossp.so which links against libossp-uuid.so.16. Install the system package so the extension can be loaded at runtime. https://claude.ai/code/session_018koD7tHEa2W5cXbiPPYatB
