Yeah ... > but I do wonder why is there a pg_config.h in libpq-dev.
Now I seem to recall some discussion with a packager who felt that providing just the latest-and-greatest libpq was sufficient for clients, and only server-side code needed to depend on the server version. So I'm betting that the intention on the Ubuntu packager's end is that you use a -I for /usr/include/postgresql when building client code, while if you want to build a server extension, you point at the appropriate version subdirectory. Meanwhile, the extension Travis is trying to build is unfamiliar with that idea and is throwing in a bunch of -I switches willy-nilly.
In short, yeah, try removing the -I that's pointing at the upper directory.
