Postgres executable missing

[james-ai]

Description

When I run buffalo info I see an error with PostgreSQL:

The postgres executable could not be found on your system.

The issue here is that I'm using these brew formulae to have multiple versions of PostgreSQL running side-by-side, and so I use postgresql-common to provide easy access to common commands.

Unfortunately postgresql-common does not come with the postgres command, hence the error.

I wonder if anyone has got Buffalo working with postgresql-common? I suppose if there's an option I can tell Buffalo where to find the executable?

Steps to Reproduce the Problem

1. brew tap petere/postgresql
2. brew install postgresql@9.6
3. brew install petere/postgresql/postgresql-common
4. buffalo info
