Hi there,
For the longest time I've had PostgreSQL server installed on one of my

It looks like I need to unmerge dev-db/postgresql (I'm currently running
8.1.11) and emerge dev-db/postgresql-server, instead.
If I'm reading those delightful blocker messages correctly, it looks like
you need postgresql-base rather than postgresql-server.
Fortunately, there is exactly one unmasked version of postqresl-base for
x86, i.e. 8.1.11. Looks like postgresql is a difficult package to maintain,
judging by the number of ebuilds that are masked.
