I used libdb4.5-dev since that is what python2.5 uses in lenny.

I recently did a python2.6 backport and I also had to do these:
Version the python-sphinx build-dep to use the version in lenny-backports.
Install the version of python-central from squeeze.
The software I wanted to run under python2.6 needed some C-based
modules so I had to install the versions of those from testing since I
was too lazy to rebuild them all.
