Package description:
postgresql
PostgreSQL is an advanced Object-Relational database management system
(DBMS) that supports almost all SQL constructs (including transactions,
subselects and user-defined types and functions). The postgresql package
includes the client programs and libraries that you'll need to access a
PostgreSQL DBMS server. These PostgreSQL client programs are programs
that directly manipulate the internal structure of PostgreSQL databases
on a PostgreSQL server. These client programs can be located on the same
machine with the PostgreSQL server, or may be on a remote machine which
accesses a PostgreSQL server over a network connection. This package
contains the docs in HTML for the whole package, as well as command-line
utilities for managing PostgreSQL databases on a PostgreSQL server.
