Yes.  I recommend droping the 'postgresql' provide from the LSB
headers of both scripts.  Make a new $postgresql or similar virtual
facility if you want to have several scripts providing a generic
service.

I'm switching on insserv by default in unstable today, so this problem
will affect many more people until the postgresql packages are
changed.

Happy hacking,
