The problem here is, Postgres is not an embedded database but really a
database management system. Therefore trying to bundle it with a desktop
application will usually cause more headaches. I'd suggest installing
Postgres as central service (as you know with web servers, application
servers, mail servers... ) and connect your clients to it or use a
desktop/linkable database for example firebird or whatever.
