The base postgresql package contains the client programs that you'll need to

access a PostgreSQL DBMS server, as well as HTML documentation for the whole

system. These client programs can be located on the same machine as the

PostgreSQL server, or on a remote machine that accesses a PostgreSQL server

over a network connection. The PostgreSQL server can be found in the

postgresql-server sub-package.
