    /etc already has enough files at top level, so it does not really 
seem to matter if you add
some more. :-)  However, it may be worth trying to keep /usr with 
hierarchical organization of dirs.
Having said that, it is not consistent with what most other linux 
distributions do -- they package this
under /usr/phppgadmin.  There is also /usr/pgadmin3, the postgres admin 
tool at /usr level.
For consistency sake, it is probably better to go with /usr/phppgadmin 
instead of /usr/postgres/phppgadmin --
I will make this change if I don't hear any other strong preferences.

      That sounds good to me.
