As i wrote my problem was solved after installing libreadline6-dev (it
was stupid of me not to check that in the first place), now i have

# dpkg -l \*readline\*
...
un  libreadline-common            <none>                        (no
description available)
un  libreadline-dev               <none>                        (no

un  libreadline4                  <none>                        (no
description available)

un  libreadline5-dev              <none>                        (no

Just for the record, for some reason saying

# apt-get build-dep postgrsql-8.4 (it doesnt install any
libreadline*-dev as dependency)
# apt-get source postgresql-8.4
# dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot

succeeds but on that system it fails compiling from source. I must admit
that i dont know that much about using computers to discuss it further
whether it is bad or good thing that i need to install manually
libreadline6-dev to compile from source. Now i am content with being
able to compile PostgreSQL from source on Squeeze and thanks for your
replies.
