I got round this problem by installing the package libdb2 by hand with
dpkg. More precisely: dpkg -i libdb2_2%3a2.7.7-8_i386.deb The deb was
in /var/cache/apt/archives.
The upgrade proceeded more or less smoothly after that, but there was
also a problem with exim; I had to create the directory /etc/exim/
manually before the upgraded exim would install.
