some of them are linl to pg_wrapper, some aren't. For instance pg_config
isn't:
$ ls -l /usr/bin/pg_*
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 1123 29 mag 19.18 /usr/bin/pg_config
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 26008 4 mag 03.00 /usr/bin/pg_config.libpq-dev
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 22799 8 ago 13.27 /usr/bin/pg_createcluster
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 15488 24 ott 2010 /usr/bin/pg_ctlcluster
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 4013 5 ago 2010 /usr/bin/pg_dropcluster
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 37 8 ago 15.35 /usr/bin/pg_dump -> ../share/postgresql-common/pg_wrapper
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 37 8 ago 15.35 /usr/bin/pg_dumpall -> ../share/postgresql-common/pg_wrapper
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 1858 5 ago 2010 /usr/bin/pg_lsclusters
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 37 8 ago 15.35 /usr/bin/pg_restore -> ../share/postgresql-common/pg_wrapper
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 23356 4 ago 18.02 /usr/bin/pg_upgradecluster
