Actually, no, it's not.  Both of those packages have dependencies upon,
or include tools that have dependencies upon, the applicable database
package.  In the normal case, you hopefully won't need them, but if (for
instance) you ever need to regenerate a catalog from volumes with bscan,
well ....  bscan needs to be able to talk to the DB.
