Dear all,

installed
E: Broken packages

Where i can found a documentation about how can i install postgresq 9.0 in
Ubuntu 9.10?

The best thing, if possible, is to upgrade Ubuntu. 9.10 is end-of-life so in addition to difficulty installing PostgreSQL, you will be missing important bug-fix and security updates.

If you absolutely can't do that, you can try the one-click installer maintained by Enterprise DB which is supposed to work on 8.04+ (http://www.enterprisedb.com/products-services-training/pgdownload).

And you can always compile from source. However if you don't have all the required software installed to compile from source you may have difficulty updating your system to install anything needed since 9.04 is no longer supported by Ubuntu.

Cheers,
Steve
