On a Debian based system the PostreSQL client programs are provided by postgresql-client-common as symbolic links to /usr/share/postgresql-common/pg_wrapper.

If you install that package and attempt to use any of the PostgreSQL client programs like psql, pg_dump, pg_dumpall, and pg_restore, the pg_wrapper without having the version specific binary package installed, like postgresql-client-9.1 it will emit this error:

You must install at least one postgresql-client-< version > package

The easiest way to fix this is to install the postgresql-client metapackage. It always depends on the currently supported database client package for PostgreSQL on Debian based systems and it depends on postgresql-client-common

sudo apt-get install postgresql-client

Update March 30th, 2020

Agree with the chosen answer, but I found to install postgresql-client-12 on a Ubuntu 18 slightly more involved.

sudo apt update
sudo apt -y install vim bash-completion wget
sudo apt -y upgrade
wget --quiet -O - | sudo apt-key add -
echo "deb `lsb_release -cs`-pgdg main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/pgdg.list
sudo apt update
sudo apt -y install postgresql-client-12

See this reference for details.

For Ubuntu 18.04.6 LTS it works with only two commands;

sudo apt-get install postgresql-client-common

and

sudo apt-get install postgresql-client

with new version postgresql 14, I follow up this document

$ sudo su -
$ lsb_release -c
Codename: focal
$ echo "deb focal-pgdg main" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/pgdg.list
$ wget --quiet -O - | sudo apt-key add -
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install postgresql-client-14
