Yes, I object.

Please see the thread starting here:
http://mail-index.netbsd.org/tech-pkg/2004/06/09/0000.html

Especially my answer here:

I'd like to implement the mechanism discussed in the thread above. To 
finally allow having more than one PostgreSQL version installed - which is 
crucial for database updates. Because of that I'd like to go for: 
postgresql (or postgresql-lib) and postgresql73*, postgresql74*.
I hope to finally find time this weekend to post patches for discussion.

Cheers,
Marc
