Even though it may be better if the script failed in a nice way in case where there's no postgres DB available, in practice, I tend to think it is reasonably safe to expect that the dependencies are installed, and operational. Note that I experienced a similar issue when postgres wouldn't be started, by attempting to do a scripted install inside a docker container, which may be close to the conditions under piuparts control (maybe a deactivated init script for postgres ?). I'm tempted to close as won't fix. Any other opinions ?
