Virtually all PostgreSQL packages come from a third party site. Here's
a few from our download pages:

http://www.freebsd.org/ports
http://yum.pgsqlrpms.org/
http://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=postgresql&searchon=names&suite=stable&section=all
http://www.gentoo.org/
http://software.opensuse.org/search
http://www.ubuntu.com/
http://pdb.finkproject.org/pdb/browse.php?summary=postgresql
http://www.macports.org/ports.php?by=name&substr=postgresql

In fact, the only ones that we do link to downloads for on
postgresql.org, are the Solaris binaries and source code.
