Package: bulmages-servers
Severity: normal
Version: 0.5.9+svn20061021+20061210-1

Hi!

As I wrote in [1], PostgreSQL 7.4 and 8.1 are going away in Lenny.
postgresql-8.2 now builds dummy packages 'postgresql',
'postgresql-client', 'postgresql-contrib', which will always point to
the latest supported version in Debian.

Your package currently depends on a version specific postgresql-X.Y
package. Please change this to be just 'postgresql', unless your
package really only works with a particular PostgreSQL version.
Respectively, please change any postgresql-contrib-X.Y dependencies to
'postgresql-contrib'.

Also, a package should not really depend on a database *server*, since
this could be on a remote machine. The really right thing would be to
only depend on postgresql-client and at most Recommends: postgresql.

Thank you!

Martin
