PostgreSql embedded available?

From

Is there a version of PostgreSql that can be embedded with an application?

I have a Mono application and when I deploy it, I would like to deploy a postgresql database with it, but embedded, so the end user doesn't have to install postgresql seperately. Is this possible?

Nope, and it's not real likely to happen.  Take a look at sqllite.

Last time I saw a box with Postgresql embedded it was next to a box
with Oracle embedded... ;)

   Yes, SQLite (http://www.sqlite.org/) is the way to go for embedded RDBMS.
Syntax is close to that of postgres, and it's available for use in any
application. Great product when you need to incorporate an invisible data
storage facility.
