Install psycopg2 on Ubuntu

I’m trying to get the python postgres client module installed on Ubuntu 12.04. The guidance is to do the following:

apt-get install python-psycopg2

However, apt says that the package can’t be located.
I’m keen to install this through apt. Is this part of another package that I can install?

Using Ubuntu 12.04 it appears to work fine for me:

jon@minerva:~$ sudo apt-get install python-psycopg2

What error are you getting exactly? – double check you’ve spelt psycopg right – that’s quite often a gotcha… and it never hurts to run an apt-get update to make sure your repo. is up to date.
