It actually gets a little more tricky, since PostgreSQL 8.3 now has tsearch2 built in. However, -contrib still has some compatibility wrappers, so it does not hurt to have -contrib installed, too. > Beeing not really deep in postgresql myself, I'm not really sure, if > changing the recommends from postgresql to postgresql-contrib is okay; > postgresql-contrib depends on the proper postsql package, so the server > would be pulled in, too. Maybe the postgresql maintainer can say > something about that? Confirmed, that will work. -contrib will always depend on the server. Although in general packages should always explicitly depend on what they need, this will keep the ORed dependency.
