Debian and Postgres do not exactly fit together. Debian's postgres
package does not adhere to the normal directories for postgres. I once
made a mistake of trying to package a postgres app with Knoppix but it
took me days to do it. Not only that, but the init scripts are also
not very... normal. I would suggest you either compile postgres from
source or make the necessary changes after installing the postgres
deb.
