So far as I can see from the bug log, #606704 is about the empty
"supported_lang" option, not which database backend gets selected by
default in non-interactive installs?

If the latter fix is necessary for some reason, is there a more
straight-forward way of applying it?  As someone who's not familiar with
the package, I'm not finding it particularly easy to verify that the
changes are actually correct based on the diff; the removal of the
database perl modules from build-depends looks strange, particularly
given that it isn't documented.
