Bug#1057850: libnss-db: Uses db5.3, no replacement in sight



Source: libnss-db
Version: 2.2.3pre1-8
Severity: serious
Tags: upstream

libnss-db is the so-called "Berkeley DB NSS". It last saw upstream
changes in 2001, and obviously depends on Berkeley DB 5.3. We want to
get rid of Berkeley DB, and now is as good a time as any other to stop
shipping libnss-db.

Users can probably use any other NSS module that can use some form of
database backend.

After a while I intend to file an RM bug, too.
