I found out this from the psycopg mailing list ->

This is a question for ubuntu-user (if there is such a mailing list,
or debian-user). I think you have to make a manual symlink from the
directory where ZPsycopgDA is installed to the Products directory in
INSTANCE_HOME. But maybe the unbuntu maintainers implemented some
automatism by now... this is not the right list to ask about that.

i had a look through the zope-psycopgda package for ubuntu and it installs into ->

usr/lib/zope/lib/python/Products/ZPsycopgDA

which does not exist on my system so i cannot symlink it...
hope someone can help
