Here is what I do in PyGreSQL:

SELECT pg_namespace.nspname, pg_class.relname,pg_attribute.attname FROM pg_class
JOIN pg_namespace ON pg_namespace.oid=pg_class.relnamespace AND   pg_namespace.nspname NOT LIKE 'pg_%'
JOIN pg_attribute ON pg_attribute.attrelid=pg_class.oid AND   pg_attribute.attisdropped='f'
JOIN pg_index ON pg_index.indrelid=pg_class.oid AND   pg_index.indisprimary='t' AND
pg_index.indkey[0]=pg_attribute.attnum
