[GRASSLIST:4188] configure with postgres - problem

hello, 

I started using postgresql and now I want to compile GRASS with postgresql 
support. 
I searched the archive and found various mails that I have to set 
"--with-postgres-includes=/usr/include/postgresql" but I checked my system 
and do not have a postgresql, postgres or pgsql in my /usr/include directory. 
Hence it does not find libpq-fe.h. Locating libpq-fe.h was unsuccessful as 
well. 
Is it a debian specific problem or a postgresql Version: 7.4.3-3?

thanks in advance, Martin
