Public bug reported:
The prometheus-pgbouncer-exporter only opens a socket to an existing
pgbouncer daemon if pgbouncer is installed and running. Exporter does
not use a psql client or talk directly to PostgresSQL services. This
package does not need to depend on postgresql-common at all, and doing
so leaves the client with a full, unexpected, and unmanaged installation
of postgreslq-server running on it.
If this is being done to re-use the postgres service account, this is a
security issue as the unexpected sql server never gets configured off
the package defaults.
This package should either reuse the generic service account, or just
create one for itself.
