The default postgres configuration supports only one instance (called
a cluster) installed on each server (you can have more by changing
configuration settings). Debian does some stuff in the
postgresql-common package to allow several to be easily installed on one 
server.

If you installed 8.4 from postgres.org (not from debian-backports)
it will have occupied the postgres default location and thus be blocking
the install of 9.x
