Did you install your package using apt-get ?
All the instalations that I do are using those tools from debian. You have to see all the packages that you have instaled in your computer like:

dpkg -l | grep postgresql
ii postgresql 7.2.1-2 Object-relational SQL database, descended fr
ii postgresql-cli 7.2.1-2 Front-end programs for PostgreSQL
ii postgresql-con 7.2.1-2 Additional facilities for PostgreSQL

Then you do: dpkg --purge postgresql. You can now run the first command to see if something is still installed. If some are instaled, the you remove it using again dpkg --purge.

I have reinstalled before. I wonder though, how I ensure that I have cleanly un-installed it first, so that I leave no residue from the previously botched installation around to mess things up the next time.

Start over: delete your PG installation and reinstall the Debian

I agree with Tom Lane. Probably is the best thing to do. When you install all it over, in theory, all the problems will solve by them selfs.
