>Description:
Currently, postgresql-tcltk requires a full postgresql-installation and will fail
if the postgresql-port has been installed with -DWITHOUT_SERVER -- although it
clearly should not! This breaks e.g. pgaccess.
>How-To-Repeat:
Install postgresql-client, try to install pgaccess/postgresql-tcltk: failure
>Fix:
Modify postgresql-tcltk's RUN_DEPENDS from
  RUN_DEPENDS=    postgresql:${PORTSDIR}/${POSTGRESQL_PORT}	(server binary)
to
  RUN_DEPENDS=    psql:${PORTSDIR}/${POSTGRESQL_PORT}		(client binary)

Rationale: 'psql' will always be present while 'postgresql' won't as mentioned
in the description.

[Is RUN_DEPENDS necessary at all?]
