No...unless someone can point me at a package that explicitly goes
out and looking /usr/local. I've yet to have a problem with any package
I've installed not being able to find libraries and include files that are
installed in /usr/local ... if someone is having a problem, they should be
directed to look at *fixing* their system in the first place, as they are
definitely going to have more problems then just with PostgreSQL...
