Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: postgresql-8.3

I have a Hardy server running PostgreSQL 8.3 only (there are no 8.4
packages installed).

After upgrading a Postgres server from 8.3.8 to 8.3.9 using apt
(particularly postgresql-server-dev-8.3 version 8.3.9-0ubuntu8.04),
pg_config lists the following (excerpts):

BINDIR = /usr/lib/postgresql/8.4/bin
...
INCLUDEDIR-SERVER = /usr/include/postgresql/8.4/server
...

clearly these paths are incorrect since I don't even have a
/usr/lib/postgresql/8.4 path. As far as I can tell, the database
software is still behaving normally, and psql commands show correct
data, e.g.:

postgres=# show data_directory;
        data_directory
------------------------------
 /var/lib/postgresql/8.3/main
(1 row)
