You may import the adminpack.sql come with the -contrib-8.2 package
to create those administrative functions.

I installed 8.2 on ubuntu 6.10 using the backport a while ago. In pgadmin III
I still can't connect to the server settings. When I open server status in
pgadmin on the ubuntu box, it first messages me that server instrumentation
functions are missing and then presents what may be a subset of the server
status. The dialog is for 8.2, 8.1 is no longer installed. But everything
I've read indicates that 8.2 should include what's needed. Using the
synaptic manager I see that postgresql 8.2, -client-8.2, -client-common,
-common, -contrib-8.2 are installed...is there one missing that would bring
the extended server status functionality with it?

Thanks all of you. It does seem like the backport is the way to go.
So now I have 8.2 and some new postgres/linux newb questions.
I can safely remove 8.1 after moving data using synaptic, ie 8.2 shouldn't
be dependent on 8.1 at all?
I don't understand how postgres is installed with these package managers.
The windows installer asks me for the superuser name (postgres is the
default) and I provide a password. There is an option to run as a service,
and a windows user acct can be created for that. After the synaptic
install, postgres seems to be running as a service. I see a postgres user
account is created 'postgres' but don't know what the password is?
Finally, I've never been able to get pgadmin to work on linux. I can't
connect, probably because the password is unknown, but another question is
the host address, is localhost is ok?
