I added - postgresql-simple to the dependencies on package.yaml of my Haskell stack project and then did stack build and got:

The container has protgresql installed like this:

RUN apt-get update && apt-get install -y wget lsb-release

RUN sh -c 'echo "deb http://apt.postgresql.org/pub/repos/apt $(lsb_release -cs)-pgdg main" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/pgdg.list'

RUN wget --quiet -O - https://www.postgresql.org/media/keys/ACCC4CF8.asc | apt-key add -

RUN apt-get update && apt-get -y install postgresql

and pg_config works.

Even though it says scroll up to its section to see the error there are no errors above.

this was at the very top of the log

After reading that and doing sudo apt install -y libpq-dev and then stack build again it worked
