Postgresql needs to be installed (it will be due to the package Depends) 
and running in order for the fossology-db postinst to setup the database. I 
think the proper behavior is to fail to install if it is not. I would be 
open to alternative behavior (like it detecting failure and warning about 
it, but still completing the install) if you can convince me that is 
somehow better.

I have changed the latter part of the fossology-db description to explain 
this better. Here is the commit
