On Gfoss.it you find a Qgis compiled from SVN source code (will
be version 1.5) not the stable one (1.4).
Notes about gfoss.it are a bit outdated here:

This should not happen, at least this should not be caused by the
Gfoss.it repository. What is the conflict with PostGIS 1.3.3-3?

If you remove the postgis package, you loose just two binaries:
pgsql2shp and shp2pgsql. The spatial database needs the
postgresql-8.3-postgis package actually.
