In 9.1 that's called an extension, please review other packages doing
the same thing, I've been giving you the SVN URL so that you can quickly

Beware that some production installations will have several versions
installed side by side, with several clusters or at least databases in
each, so that you can not decide in which database to deploy the
extension from your OS level package.
