pgAdmin III packages are available for the Ubuntu dapper and feisty distributions.

Before you try to install

The archive files are signed with a dedicated GPG Key. Before trying to install the pgAdmin III packages, you should add the corresponding public key to your apt keyring this way:

wget -q -O - http://www.pgadmin.org/pgp/archive_key_debian_ubuntu.gpg | sudo apt-key add -

Once the key added, you need to choose a mirror from the list of PostgreSQL mirrors and configure your sources.list. Click one of the flags, and copy the URL you are redirected to. On each mirror, the packages are located in: /pgadmin3/release/ubuntu

Then follow the specific instructions below.

Ubuntu Dapper configuration

Choose your mirror as mentioned above and edit /etc/apt/sources.list file and add the following line:

deb [MIRROR URL]/pgadmin3/release/ubuntu dapper pgadmin

Ubuntu Feisty or Gutsy configuration

Choose your mirror as mentioned above and edit /etc/apt/sources.list file and add the following line:

Feisty:

deb [MIRROR URL]/pgadmin3/release/ubuntu feisty pgadmin

Gutsy:

deb [MIRROR URL]/pgadmin3/release/ubuntu gutsy pgadmin

For example, for France and Gutsy Gibbon, you can try:

deb ftp://ftp4.fr.postgresql.org/pub/mirrors/postgresql/pgadmin3/release/ubuntu gutsy pgadmin

Please, note that you additionally need to ENABLE THE UNIVERSE COMPONENT as wxWidgets2.8 is available from universe only at the moment. To do so, check the Ubuntu documentation or at least try to launch the update-manager configuration from the System/Administration Gnome menu.

Proceed to installation

Simply use Synaptic to install pgAdmin III as you would do with any other package or run the following command from the command prompt:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install pgadmin3
