You may have installed a portion of PostgreSQL - possibly just the
client stuff (psql, libraries and such needed to connect to a PostgreSQL
server). The deb package is usually called "postgresql-client-VERSION".
Make sure you have installed the server which is just called
"postgresql-VERSION".
Optionally you can install postgresql-contrib which contains a large
variety of available extensions (the package installs them on your
machine but you have to selectively install the specific extensions you
want into your database - see "create extension" and look for info on
"contrib").
You can also install a variety of languages for use in writing
procedural functions in PostgreSQL (plperl, plpython, pllua, pltcl, ...).
