I think Martin Pitt reads this list, he's maintaining both for ubuntu and debian. The problem itself is tied to the multi-major version support in the packaging, and in the tools. # dpkg -S /usr/bin/pg_config libpq-dev: /usr/bin/pg_config The libpq-dev should be independant of the major version you target, but contains pg_config. Using the direct path works too: postgresql-server-dev-8.4: /usr/lib/postgresql/8.4/bin/pg_config postgresql-server-dev-8.3: /usr/lib/postgresql/8.3/bin/pg_config You could even adjust your PATH to prepend it with the bin tools you need for a specific debian major.
