not for potato, apparently.

but this is available as a "deb" line in sources.list:

	deb http://www.samfundet.no/~tfheen/debian potato main

then

	apt-get install postgresql-{pl,client,contrib,dev,doc} libpgperl

installed it!

now i just need to figure out where the docs are that show
how to use the embedded perl... i've looked in /usr/share/doc/*
and man * and info * -- i'm just a bit lost, still. it's gotta
be in there, right?

postgtres-embedded-perl docs? any pointers?
