Ah, it didn't occur to me to try hitting ENTER. Still, this would be fine for manually running the script, but as I am restarting the server as a part of SaltStack config, I need
pg_ctl to terminate without me intervening.
The solution with the
-l argument is fine, I think. Even if I use it, the server then logs its output into the file I specified in
postgresql.conf (which I would not expect, by the way).
