Hm, if I force the installation to fail by creating an inaccessible directory /var/lib/postgresql/, I do get the error message:
Creating new cluster (configuration: /etc/postgresql/8.3/main, data: /var/lib/postgresql/8.3/main)... initdb: could not access directory "/var/lib/postgresql/8.3/main": Permission denied Error: initdb failed Error: could not create default cluster. Please create it manually with pg_createcluster 8.3 main --start or a similar command (see 'man pg_createcluster'). Can you please give me some more details how to reproduce your error?
