Depend on mysql-client for lamp web application

[uwe@steinmann.cx (Uwe Steinmann)]

Hi,

I just wonder if my debian package for a lamp web application must
depend on mysql-client. debian/(config|postinst|prerm) calls mysql
to check whether the required database exists and creates resp. drops
it. Doesn't that mean that mysql-client is a dependency even it the
database server is locate on different computer?
On the other hand, there is at least one web apps (phpgroupware)
without a dependency on mysql-client.
