Hi Bryan,
that's not a bug, the /usr/bin/pg_config from libpq-dev is moved aside
by postgresql-common's preinst script via dpkg-divert:
diversion by postgresql-common from: /usr/bin/pg_config
diversion by postgresql-common to: /usr/bin/pg_config.libpq-dev
libpq-dev, postgresql-common: /usr/bin/pg_config

If the diversion didn't work for you, something is messed up. Does
"apt-get install --reinstall postgresql-common" fix things?
If there's still problems, please attach the terminal output of
apt and dpkg so we can have a look.
