[buildd-tools-devel] Bug#857770: src:postgresql-debversion: please provide a unversioned binary package

[Antonio Terceiro]

Source: postgresql-debversion
Severity: wishlist

At the moment I am automating the installation of postgresql and and the
debversion extension. The fact that there is no "unversioned" binary
package makes that harder than necessary: I will have to hardcode
postgresql-X.Y-debversion, and as soon as that deployment recipe need to
be applied to a different Debian version, that will break.

So, please provide an unversioned binary package called
'postgresql-debversion' which depends on the actual package for the
current PostgreSQL version.
