Yes, those dependencies are correct. postgis depends on sfcgal for 3D support, which in turn depends on openscenegraph which depends on a bunch of graphics related libraries. Other than taking up a little space, these libraries don't hurt on a database server. You can reduce the number of dependencies by not installing recommended packages, but since that has been made the default for good reasons.
