1. Install Ubuntu 11.10 Desktop 32bit (so you have a clean machine)
1. Follow INSTALL file instructions for a dev setup:
1. $ `sudo apt-get install python-setuptools solr-jetty python-lxml python-imaging`
1. $ `sudo apt-get install gdal-bin proj postgis python-psycopg2`
1. $ `dpkg --status postgresql-9.1`

Result:
Error: `Package 'postgresql-9.1' is not installed and no info is available.`

Expected:
postgresql should be installed by the INSTALL file instructions

Presumably we just need to add this to the list of packages. I think it's installed by default on Ubuntu Server but is not on Ubuntu Desktop.
