Then somebody should step-up and give a libnss-db little love. It's
shame we couldn't push it to GSoC now :(. Unfortunately it's so far
away from DNS as it could be, so I am probably not be able to adopt it
in our labs and I have already too many tasks on my shoulder. So I
cannot really promise anything, but if I catch some spare cycles
somewhere and nothing happens here, I'll at least fix the security
issue and libdb transition in a NMU. However I still think that from a
long term this needs to be

Reassigning to wnpp as a RFH and Ccing 604854 (which is about building
libnss-db from eglibc).
