Package: postgresql-common
Version: 102
Severity: wishlist

postgresql-common depends on lsb-release which in turn depends on python.
I'd like to be able to install postgresql without installing python.

The only place I could find where lsb-release is used is in
/usr/share/postgresql-common/supported-versions which is part of
postgresql-client-common. This script also handles the case when lsb-release
is not installed. So I'd suggest to remove lsb-release from the dependencies
of postgresql-common and make postgresql-client-common recommend it.
