Ok, so you needed it for Debian Woody and/or Mandrake.
Concerning woody, we provide packages for it, why not simply using them ?
If you need a more up to date PostgreSQL for woody, Oliver Elphick who 
is responsible of PostgreSQL for Debian provides its own backports: 
http://people.debian.org/~elphick/
pgAdmin3 has just entered Debian (see 
http://packages.debian.org/pgadmin3) and I'll backport this particular 
version for woody asap: except for the postgresql dependencies, it 
should be a simple rebuild of the source package with dpkg-buildpackage.

Concerning Mandrake 9.1, packages are also provided.

Is there a particular reason except personnal willing to learn which 
pushed you not using the packages ? I ask this because this is to me 
interesting to know why people don't use provided packages: it can 
figure out a bad communication from our side, or simply badly packaged 
things or documentation.
