Oh. I thought that EDB was *the* Postgres company like MySQL AB was *the* MySQL 
company. My mistake.

I misspoke. I meant the OS repos more than apt itself.

I was just using apt as an example. I don't actually want to deal with apt or

What I want to create (and provide) is a portable tarball that has most of all 
what it needs in the tarball and will look for relevant libraries relative to 
itself. Something that Just Works™ *almost* anywhere (Ubuntu, Debian, RedHat, 
Suse... maybe even Alpine).

Any idea how to do that?
