Hi folks, |
| 2 |
|
| 3 |
since jakub (as always) closes all my bugs, I'll report the issue |
| 4 |
to this list before completely giving up and never ever waste a |
| 5 |
single second on reporting bugs ... |

Lots of packages have an wrong/unnecessary dependency to |
| 8 |
postgresql. Three cases: |
| 9 |
|
| 10 |
a) probably traditionally depended on the whole postgresql, maybe |
| 11 |
since before libpq was an own package. ie. qt, dovecot, ... |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
b) many apps (ie. webapps like bugzilla) have postgresql as dep., |
| 14 |
although they do not need it to be installed. (ie. bugzilla does |
| 15 |
not have to do anything directly w/ postgresql, since it uses |
| 16 |
perl-DBD for database access). Of course they maybe want to |
| 17 |
have access to some postgres database, but this obviously does |
| 18 |
not need an local server. |
