Package: libpq-dev Version: 8.1.0-2 Severity: normal My problem with the new setup of libpq-dev + postgresql-server-dev ist pg_config: this is installed in libpq-dev, and always points to the latest postgresql-server-dev. This is very unfortunate, since I then cannot build addons for older server versions (e.g. Slony, which only builds against 8.0 AFAIK). I would recommend branding libpq-dev with the pg version number, too, to enable builds for older pg versions. As an alternative, have postgresql-server-dev-X.X supply it's own private pg_config in a separate location (/var/lib/postgresql/X.X/pg_config?, but I guess that's against some Debian policy). For me it makes absolute sense to distribute pg_config with postgresql-server-dev, as it describes how the server was built.
