You don't need postgresql, as the only component that talks to the database
engine holding the catalog is the director.  Strictly speaking, the database
doesn't even have to run on the same server, as it can communicate over the
network.

As for the mtx package, that includes the wrapper script that the storage
daemon uses to interact with a tape changer, so if you have one, you'll need
to install that one the same machine as the storage daemon.
