How can I check if this is the case?  I was getting that same error when
trying to install the adminpack onto the postgres database (as postgres
user of course).  If I try "CREATE EXTENSION adminpack FROM unpackaged"
onto the postgres database this way, I get:

ERROR:  extension "adminpack" has no update path from version "unpackaged" to 
version "1.0"

and "CREATE EXTENSION tablefunc FROM unpackaged" onto the template1
database, I get:

ERROR:  function normal_rand(integer, double precision, double precision) does 
not exist
