| Summary | front-end programs for PostgreSQL |
| Description | This package contains client and administrative programs for PostgreSQL: these are the interactive terminal client psql and programs for creating and removing users and databases. This is the client package for PostgreSQL. If you install PostgreSQL on a standalone machine, you need the server package dev-db/postgresql, too. On a network, you can install this package on many client machines, while the server package may be installed on only one machine. PostgreSQL is an object-relational SQL database management system. |
