There is no predifined directory for custom software.
Mostly the installation destination is defined with the setup/installation.
If the mount points do not sound like they could house the application, you might want to use the find command, maybe with -mtime switch etc. or have check the process list with ps for the name of processes that belong to the application. If you are lucky, you might see the path to the program.

pg_config
PG_CONFIG(1) PostgreSQL Client Applications PG_CONFIG(1)
NAME
pg_config - retrieve information about the installed version of PostgreSQL
SYNOPSIS
pg_config { --bindir | --includedir | --includedir-server | --libdir | --pkglibdir | --configure | --version }...
DESCRIPTION
The pg_config utility prints configuration parameters of the currently installed version of PostgreSQL. It is intended, for example, to be
used by software packages that want to interface to PostgreSQL to facilitate finding the required header files and libraries.
OPTIONS
To use pg_config, supply one or more of the following options:
--bindir
Print the location of user executables. Use this, for example, to find the psql program. This is normally also the location where
the pg_config program resides.
--includedir
Print the location of C header files of the client interfaces.
--includedir-server
Print the location of C header files for server programming.
--libdir
Print the location of object code libraries.
--pkglibdir
Print the location of dynamically loadable modules, or where the server would search for them. (Other architecture-dependent data
files may also be installed in this directory.)
--configure
Print the options that were given to the configure script when PostgreSQL was configured for building. This can be used to repro-
duce the identical configuration, or to find out with what options a binary package was built. (Note however that binary packages
often contain vendor-specific custom patches.)
--version
Print the version of PostgreSQL and exit.
If more than one option (except for --version) is given, the information is printed in that order, one item per line.
NOTES
The option --includedir-server is new in PostgreSQL 7.2. In prior releases, the server include files were installed in the same location as
the client headers, which could be queried with the --includedir. To make your package handle both cases, try the newer option first and
test the exit status to see whether it succeeded.
In releases prior to PostgreSQL 7.1, before the pg_config came to be, a method for finding the equivalent configuration information did not
exist.
HISTORY
The pg_config utility first appeared in PostgreSQL 7.1.
