Install postgresql-contrib on Bazzite
I am taking a course and trying to install PostgreSQL on Bazzite. I installed PostgreSQL itself using brew but I think I'm missing a second package. The instructions for the course look like they're assuming you're using Ubuntu or doing the coursework using WSL.
So I think what I need to do next is install postgresql-contrib. But I don't know how to do so. I am very new to Linux and could use any help.

you can even choose which version, but you likely want 24.04
No, what I needed was to install them outside of a distrobox, where I could see it from a normal command prompt.
Solution
If you REALLY need to have it outside of distrobox, you use rpm-ostree
Ninja'd
That's what I ended up doing
If I bugger my OS, that's survivable. I have install media at the ready and everything I give a damn about is on a second HDD
