[Pkg-postgresql-public] Dropping postgresql 8.3 for squeeze

[Martin Pitt]

Hello PostgreSQL friends,

We currently have PostgreSQL 8.3 and 8.4 in sid/testing. Just as in
Lenny we only want to support the latest major release in squeeze, and
let the postgresql-common architecture handle upgrades. With the
freeze being three months out, we should now start to clean up the 8.3
stuff.

I went through the reverse dependencies of 8.3 (see below). I'll file
bugs against all those packages now, and track their progress.

Thanks, and have a nice weekend!

Martin
