Maybe this one:

postgresql-autodoc - utility to create system tables overview in HTML, DOT and XML

,----[ apt-cache show postgresql-autodoc ]
| Description: utility to create system tables overview in HTML, DOT and XML
| This is a utility which will run through PostgreSQL system tables and returns
| HTML, DOT, and 2 styles of XML which describes the database.
| .
| The HTML is human readable (via webbrowser). The first style of XML is actually
| the fileformat of Dia, a UML diagram tool. The second type of XML is similar to
| the HTML but in the Docbook 4 format. It enables you to mix in other docbook
| documentation via the XREFs, generating PDFs, HTML, RTF, or other formatted
| documents. Between these tools and JavaDoc with the appropriate XREFs,
| documentation about a project can be generated quickly and be easily updatable
| yet have a very professional look with some DSSSL work.
