I believe it is.

Here are the instructions I use for building Pygresql for the Debian
distribution, which I put together after asking for help on Debian lists:

build-python:  cd src/interfaces/python && \     cp /usr/lib/python1.5/config/Makefile.pre.in `pwd`  cd
src/interfaces/python&& \     echo *shared* > Setup  cd src/interfaces/python && \     echo _pg pgmodule.c
-I../../include-I../libpq \        -L../libpq -lpq -lcrypt \        >> Setup  cd src/interfaces/python && \     $(MAKE)
-fMakefile.pre.in boot  cd src/interfaces/python && \     $(MAKE)  touch build-python
