I originally installed it from the deb package but I couldn't get php to compile with psql, as libpq-fe.h was missing. My bro' told me: "lipq-fe.h is a C header file which should be in the lib directory of Postgres BUT may not be there unless you built Postgres from source.
Alternatively, you should install the postgresql-dev package. Normally, to be able to compile against a library in a package, look for a matching -dev package. (I think RPM-based distributions use -devel instead. Keystroke wasters!)
Far be it from me to dis' yo' bro', but I think he didn't quite give you the full story this time...
