Description Enrico 'nekrad' Weigelt 2006-12-23 12:31:26 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 ...)
