I tried before to install odbc.
Gofer new
  squeaksource: 'ODBC';
  package: 'ConfigurationOfODBC'; load.
  (Smalltalk at: #ConfigurationOfODBC) load.

When I execute the code above I got an exception doesNotUnderstand:
#selector in RBParser>>externalFunctionDeclaration. Looks like currentScope
variable is not defined.
Also if I install ODBC from the catalog it also fails.
I still don't see how postgres can help but I'll give it another try.
