Bug Description

Trac is able to use PostgreSQL as a storage backend as of version 0.9 (available in dapper) and above. The user installing trac should at least be made aware of this fact during the installation process.

Additionally, this would require pyPgSQL.

I know we are in UVF, but... As an additional side note, dapper currently has 0.9.3. A security update of 0.9.4 is now available.

The maintainer says that the mysql and postgresql support is still experimental and he won't add them to Suggests/Recommends before it becomes stable.

Confirmed; The latest release of Trac is capable of using either Postgresql or MySQL, although the support for latter is considered experimental.
