Someone installed postgresql in our server and causing an update issue. I am trying to remove this package but failed after many attempts. For examples:

$ sudo apt autoremove

What else can I do to fix this?

I can see lots of postgresql in the server:

$ sudo ls -l /var/lib/dpkg/info | grep -i postgresql

How can I remove these nasty packages?

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
