Hi there,
It is available for Hirsute - I've running Kubuntu, and installed it via
apt as above.

I'd imagine that this is down to the packaging rather than pgAdmin
itself. Anyway, examining the menu entry on my laptop reveals the
following command launches it:
/usr/pgadmin4/bin/pgadmin4
So you could maybe add /usr/pgadmin4/bin to your PATH, or set up an
alias in your .profile, or something like that.
I hope that this helps.
Ray.
