Thanks Christoph

 I'm not aware of packages that make use of the -client package. The server
is set up with this Dockerfile:
https://github.com/docker-library/postgres/blob/54053ad27ac099abff3d4964bf7460fb9c541d5d/9.6/Dockerfile

Running these two commands were enough to get the client package installed
for me:

mkdir -p /usr/share/man/man7/ && touch
/usr/share/man/man7/ABORT.7.gz.dpkg-tmp
mkdir -p /usr/share/man/man1/ && touch /usr/share/man/man1/psql.1.gz
