I had the same problem and I resolved it by changing mklang_pl.sql
file in /usr/lib/postgresql/lib. I have changed there path to
plpgsql.so, there was something like

create function plpgsql_call_handler() returns opaque
as '$POSTGRESDIR/plpgsql.so'
language 'C';

and I have changed this to

create function plpgsql_call_handler() returns opaque
as '/usr/lib/postgresql/lib/plpgsql.so'
language 'C';

and then droped pgsql language and reran mklang_pl.sql
