Description Enrico 'nekrad' Weigelt 2006-12-23 12:22:27 UTC
It has postgresql as dependency, but (IMHO) libpq should be enough.

This ends up in installing the whole postgresql suite instead of just the client library. Not quite optimal ;-P

Seems, in 7.x times there was only one big monolithic postgesql port and the splittof was done later, which has not been reflected in dependencies.

(BTW: It seems many packages have this problem ...)

BTW it seems that opening _one_ bug with your list would save me lots of time and bugspam.

At least would be easier for me. 
BUT: My intention was to keep things clean and separate, since different packages have different maintainers and they won'T be fixed all at the same time.

Here's the list of packages with probably wrong deps:
