Previously just depended on 'postgres' which was OK until we switched to
using the Postgres provided repository for postgres packages, which
makes postgres be postgres 10. Haven't tested any of the infrastructure
for 10 and don't want to start right now.

prepare-olddebian : does not do package file excludes
prepare-database: does not do package file excludes or dump databases

These are for use on machines where we can no longer reinstate them by
quickly and easily installing a new VM from the network and then
layering the backup on top, usually because the OS is obsolete.

The script runs some SQL which ultimately determines the time at which the last
backup with an exit code of zero was. If there has never been a successful
backup, we ended up reporting a clear dot. Whilst this may lead to a few
transitory red dots immediately after adding a new host, I think this is
preferable to not realising for months that a host isn't being backed up!
See ticket 154527

For offline machines, use the time between last backup and last change of conn dot status to decide on backup status

This seems to be used for machines with postgres. It was also updated
to put exclude and log files in the new locations.
