Hi No wwwconfig-common will never depend on postgresql or mysql or its client packages.
It is up to the package that depend on wwwconfig-common to add that dependency. The reason is simple: * If wwwconfig-common depend on all things that can be used by it it will have a very long list of dependencies (exim4, postgresql-client, mysql-client, apache and so on). * Wwwconfig-common is only used by postinst scripts. * If a web program only have support for postgres and nothing else, it should not depend on something that depend on a huge number of other things. So It is up to the package that depend on wwwconfig-common to depend on the things that is needed. That package is the one that know what parts of wwwconfig-common that it actually uses.
