./configure --with-db-type=Pg --with-db-dba=postgres

There are other configure options you might want. FWIW, here is my
configure incantation:

./configure --enable-graphviz --enable-gd --enable-gpg
--with-rt-group=root --with-web-user=www-data
--with-web-group=www-data --with-web-handler=fastcgi
--with-libs-group=root --with-db-type=Pg --with-db-dba=postgres

You (generally) can see the configure options using:

./configure --help

-m
