Undoubtably you've now got libpq.so.5 installed. You didn't have to
delete the old library (though I imagine it was done for you)

The backend doesn't require the client library, so it's ok. If other
stuff works you got a library that works, just not the right one for
pgadmin.

Two options:
1) Recompile pgadmin for the new libpq
2) Install the old libpq as well as the new one

Have a nice day,
