I configured virtual NICS using pf, and a jail for FreeBSD using qjail create pgsql-jail 192.168.0.3.
When I tried to install PostgreSQL 9.3 using port collection, it shows strange message at first.
pgsql-jail /usr/ports/databases/postgresql93-server >make install

Anyway, installation continues, so I waited. I chose all default options for all option dialogs. And at the end of the process, I saw it finally failed with this message.

I have no idea why this fails. Errors at beginning seems I have something wrong with dialog4ports. And errors at last seems installer cannot write to ports file tree. AFAIK, the ports files are read-only shared from host system.
What's wrong with my jail? How can install PostgreSQL 9.3 in my jail?

I have a same problem. I found a workaround. Try this: - install manually dialog4ports-0.1.5_1
- then try install postgresql93
- on error create link to resolve problem of pkgconfig
My schema of jail's skeleton is a little different but this work form me. PostgreSQL9.3 is installed correctly!
Regards.
