Why?

To get a good answer, you will need to explain more about what you are
trying to achieve and why you want it.

There are already Debian packages for PostgreSQL. What is wrong with them?

Do you want to build a package of a newer PostgreSQL for an older
version of Debian/Ubuntu? If so, check backports.org before trying to
build your own. If there isn't a backport to the version you want, I
recommend that you get the source to the latest package for the latest
debian release and backport that yourself rather than trying to make a
new package from scratch.

Do you actually want to *compile* an existing Debian package of
PostgreSQL from source into a binary .deb? If so, use dpkg-build .
