This is not a PostgreSQL bug. It's looks like a problem with the packages you are trying to use on your (rather old) version of Ubuntu. I doubt anyone in Ubuntu will care, though, given how old the version you're running is, so I'll try to help out.

First, let's make sure there are no other packages that might be involved. To do that, please post the full, exact output of the following command:

  cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/* /etc/apt/sources.list

... and of this command:

  apt-cache policy postgresql-common postgresql-8.3



Also: you ran your install command from within a directory that had been deleted, presumably by the --purge you just ran. That's what the messages "sudo: cannot get working directory" and "shell-init: error retrieving current directory: getcwd: cannot access parent directories: No such file or directory" mean - you are running from a deleted directory. While that probably don't cause problems in this case, it can. If in doubt, type "cd" then enter before running an install command so you go to your home directory.
