[Bug 1384864] [NEW] Please blacklist pg_ctl

[Martin Pitt]

Public bug reported:

pg_ctl is a command which isn't exposed by Debian/Ubuntu's
postgresql-X.Y packages; the pg_ctlcluster tool wraps this. However, if
users try to call it directly, they get:

$ pg_ctl
The program 'pg_ctl' is currently not installed. You can install it by typing:
sudo apt-get install postgres-xc

This is bad advice: It will uninstall your postgresql-X.Y packages to
replace them with -xc (which isn't integrated into the postgresql-common
infrastructure).

Can we please blacklist this from command-not-found? This should also be
done in Ubuntu 14.04 LTS.
