I have new install of Ubuntu Hoary (newbie)
As I could not get apt-get to find postgres, I downloaded a deb package(stable) as below. The version of python currently installed is 2.4.1. (BTW, why is python required anyway?) I tried to install a program called locale which however cites dependencies with glibc I would have preferred to install PG version 8.0 but have no clue how to go about this.
How do I get out of this jam, folks?

Error Message as follows:
