Can I install and run U++ on a virtual Linux machine?
If that is possible would it create the unix(exe) again in the 'Output Directory'?
Yes, it is rather easy with VirtualBox or other virtualization tool. It will create the resulting binary in a directory inside the virtual machine. You can then copy it wherever you want.

Also,in the post for windows compilation you mentioned that if there are external applications additional files might be necessary.

When compiling for unix what do I have to include if I am connecting to PostgreSQL?
On Linux (also other unix-like systems) the software is usually installed and taken care of by package managers. So it is usually enough to just say to users that your software requires postgresql package to be installed and the will install it from their distribution repository. Furthermore, if you will distribute you software as a package, the package format usually lists all the other packages that it depends on and the manager will automatically install everything necessary.
