Do you get anything before that point? The first part of the install
should have tried to install the PostgreSQL packages (libpq-dev,
postgresql-client-8.3, postgresql-server-dev-8.3) required by the
libdbi / libdbd bits. I would be interested to know if that ran into
some problem on your end.

Hmm. Now is probably a good time to note that, to better support
multi-server installs where you would install PostgreSQL on its own
server, we no longer force the install of the PostgreSQL server as one
of the prerequisite packages. I'll update the docs, if that hasn't
already been noted.
