 Thanks for your exhaustive additional informations. In what way did
aptitude propose you this? Did it list broken dependencies, anything?
Can you maybe send your aptitude log file along?

 Sorry, if you don't give any informations I'm not able to help you or
reproduce your problem. The postgres package version 8.3.1-1~bpo40+1
depends on postgresql-8.3 which in turn depends on libpq5 (>= 8.3~beta1).
The only way I can see you having a problem is that you have missing
preferences for all the involved packages (including e.g.
postgresql-client-common). Due to your immense informations in your
mails this is quite likely. Or not.

 So long,
Rhonda
