Custom install options via apt-get install on ubuntu
I'd like to pass configuration options to the postgres installer on
ubuntu if possible. Mostly I'm concerned about setting the location of
the data directory, and where the logs are stored.
I'm familiar with how to configure these after postgres has been
installed with the default settings, but it would save me some hassle
if I could do that as part of the installation itself. Is there a way
to pass those configuration options to the installer?

No, there's no way. You need to do it after the install.

You can with the pg_createcluster command. It is an Ubuntu-specific command
that will assist in creating and managing multiple clusters on an Ubuntu
system. You may also be interested in pg_ctlcluster, pg_lsclusters, and
pg_dropcluster.
