The other programs are typically installed only on server due to security (you have to log IN before you can do adminstrative things on server). Split the package in two: 1. ship /usr/bin/psql exclusively (with man page) in postgresql-client This would be in par with the other <program>-client packages, like openssh, mysql etc. 2. put the other programs in, say, postgresql-admin Since the rest of the binaries are used for administrative things. The slit will also help distributing and restricting correct programs in each client that needs or doesn't need them. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.12-1-686 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ISO-8859-1) (ignored: LC_ALL set to en_US) postgresql-common depends on no packages.
