1. I have a shiny new desktop running
cat /etc/os-release
NAME="Ubuntu"
VERSION="14.04.3 LTS, Trusty Tahr"
ID=ubuntu
ID_LIKE=debian
PRETTY_NAME="Ubuntu 14.04.3 LTS"
VERSION_ID="14.04"
HOME_URL="http://www.ubuntu.com/"
SUPPORT_URL="http://help.ubuntu.com/"
BUG_REPORT_URL="http://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/"

2. Unfortunately I thought it was 14.10 and first put "utopic" in the list
file but that didn't work. big surpries.
3. But now
cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/pgdg.list
deb http://apt.postgresql.org/pub/repos/apt/ trusty-pgdg main

4.. and after running sudo apt-get update I do indeed get psql. But is this
to be expected?
psql --version
psql (Postgres-XC) 1.1
(based on PostgreSQL) 9.2.4

Dis (mis)step 2 do me in? Should I not see psql version closer to 9.4?

You seem to have installed psql from Postgres XC rather than from
PostgreSQL. Look if you have any of the XC packages installed and then
remove those, replacing them with the PostgreSQL ones.

Thanks Magnus,

removed the xc package, loaded synaptic and got pg9.4.
