Is there a pg_config binary in /usr/lib/postgresql/10.3/bin/ and if so,
what is the output of  /usr/lib/postgresql/10.3/bin/pg_config --sharedir

Also what is the output of  /usr/lib/postgresql/10.3/bin/postgres -V

The most plausible explanation I can see for what you're seeing there is
that what you have as /usr/lib/postgresql/10.3/bin/postgres is not
actually the 10.3 binary but rather the 10.2 one. There should be no
symlinks involved there - the path that is reported in the error message
is the one that the postgres binary actually did try to open.
