as you likely are aware, the db5.3 package ("Berkeley DB", short "bdb"
or just "db") is orphaned in Debian, and also upstream (Oracle)
changed the license for new versions. It is also a popular library for
"simple" databases. This leaves us with the problem that we ship this
to our users, but the future of it seems problematic and possibly
unsupportable.
Probably-silly question, but: Comdb2 contains a BDB fork retaining the
original permissive licence ( within https://github.com/bloomberg/comdb2
); might that be suitable replacement?
