For a generic use of postgresql,  binary packages in any linux distribution 
are good and reliable. In some cases, i.e. in a production context where you 
have to optimize your postgresql,  the ability of configuring and compiling 
postgresql from sources is a must. This should make you use a more flexible 
distribution like slackware and gentoo with which you can prepare your linux 
box from scratch by compiling everything according to your needs (it isn't 
enough to have a binary linux distribituion installed and only postgresql 
compiled from sources).
