This depends. PostgreSQL itself won't mind this one bit, but since the
package repository won't exist any longer (i.e., broken), when running
'apt-get update', some processes will take that status as an error in
package management.

This may break automation if the automation depends on _all_ repositories
functioning properly. For instance, you may see this as an issue if adding
the host to Canonical's ESM repositories. Chef/Puppet/Ansible/etc. might
not like it, either.
