However, as expressively stated, we didn't manage (yet) to install PostgreSQL 8.4 on Wheezy for strange library dependencies etc. Maybe you are more successful. In this case please let us know how you managed.
Please note that ]po[ DOES NOT RUN WITH PG 9.1.
Cheers!

I just did a migration from a Debian Lenny to a new Debian Wheezy server. Postgres 8.4 doesn't really work either. At least not for me, but my server is still running an older version of PO, but this should still work.
The trick is to add the Postgres.org repos to debian, and then install the older (still supported) version of postgres from there. (You'll need to do this using su/root)
add the following repo to /etc/apt/sources.list
deb http://apt.postgresql.org/pub/repos/apt/ wheezy-pgdg main
Then run these commands to install postgres
wget --quiet -O - http://apt.postgresql.org/pub/repos/apt/ACCC4CF8.asc | sudo apt-key add -
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install postgresql-8.2 postgresql-doc-8.2 postgresql-client-8.2 postgresql-client-common postgresql-contrib-8.2
Other than that, I pretty much just did everything here, http://www.project-open.org/en/install_debian_wheezy
Changes from that tutorial
1) I did not update
/etc/init.d/postgresql
It was left as is.
2) Postgres configuration file is
/etc/postgresql/8.2/main/postgresql.conf
not
/usr/local/pgsql/data/postgresql.conf

Hello ]op[-Experts,
we would like to install ]op[ on Debian.
Please, could you give us some install instructions.
Thanks,
Cyril
Hi Cyril,
There are no ]op[ experts here in the forum, just ]po[ ones :-)
Maybe the following page will get you further:

Hi Goldfish!
Thanks for posting the solution. We haven't verified the solution yet, but posted you comment to the installer page at the moment.
Thanks a lot!
