I notice that Ubuntu is not yet on this list. I can confirm that
PostgreSQL 7.4.5 is supported under Ubuntu 4.10 (warty) on all platforms
(x86, amd64 and ppc) and that PostgreSQL 7.4.6 is supported under Ubuntu
5.4 (hoary) on all platforms. We are now in version freeze for hoary, so
that version is fixed and the 8 series won't be officially supported
until the following release (October 2005), although installing the
Debian packages should work just fine.

You seem to be under a misconception about the purpose of that list.
It has nothing to do with what Postgres releases are packaged by
various distributions. Entries on the list mean that someone has
verified that the *source code* distribution builds per instructions
and passes regression tests on that platform.
If you are trying to say that you personally have verified that for
Ubuntu, you didn't phrase it clearly.
