Package: postgresql-q3c Version: 1.6.0-1 Severity: wishlist Dear Maintainer,
Postgres extensions have a hard dependency on the version of postgres itself. On the other hand, Debian lets people install multiple postgres versions in parallel. Therefore, the package name needs to contain the postgres version the extension is complied again (e.g., postgres-11-q3c). I'd say postgres-q3c should (roughly) copy what postgis does. There, postgres-postgis is a virtual package, with packages like postgres-11-postgis providing it. Postgis takes another step in allowing multiple versions of postgis itself being installable for a single postgres version. I don't think there's a credible use case for that in q3c. -- System Information: Debian Release: 10.4 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 5.4.7 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Kernel taint flags: TAINT_WARN, TAINT_OOT_MODULE Locale: LANG=C.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=C.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=C.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Init: sysvinit (via /sbin/init) Versions of packages postgresql-q3c depends on: ii libc6 2.28-10 ii postgresql-11 11.7-0+deb10u1 postgresql-q3c recommends no packages. postgresql-q3c suggests no packages. -- no debconf information
