Hi Ian,
Indeed, a local PostgreSQL server is optional. One must exist somewhere
network-accessible, but it need not be on the local machine, and need
not even be running Debian.
So it doesn't make sense to make it a depends or a pre-depends (doing so
would probably inspire more bug reports from those that use a
centralized database system), so I'm not sure what can be done about
this. I suppose I could just tag it wontfix. Your thoughts?
