When I upgraded to Kubuntu 7.10 I opted to install 8.3 rather than stick with 8.2. I knew to dump my 8.2 files first.
After I finished installing, I got (and still get) a message that I should have an 8.3.0-client. I don't see any separate downloads listed so assume it's in the standard package. Is there a step I might have missed?

It's a separate package in debian/ubuntu.

$ dpkg -l | grep postgres | grep 8.3
ii postgresql-8.3 8.3.0-1~bpo40+1
object-relational SQL database, version 8.3
ii postgresql-client-8.3 8.3.0-1~bpo40+1
front-end programs for PostgreSQL 8.3

(These particular ones are from backports.org).
