You may need to run these commands as the postgres user.
To restore the downloaded dump, run =pg_restore=. This command should prompt
for a password, at which point enter the password for the database user that
you set earlier.
The database contains the configuration for what repositories and build
servers to track, some example configuration is provided and you can load this
in to the database by running:
#+BEGIN_SRC shell
pg_restore --jobs=4 --user=guix_data_service --no-tablespaces --host=127.0.0.1 --dbname=guix_data_service guix_data_service_small.dump
./pre-inst-env guile example-repositories-setup.scm
