funkiest:~$ dpkg -S libdb.so.3
libc6: /lib/libdb.so.3

funkiest:~$ locate libdb.so.3
/lib/libdb.so.3

funkiest:~$ ls -l /lib/libdb.so.3 
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root           14 Nov  9 04:32 /lib/libdb.so.3 -> libdb-2.1.2.so

funkiest:~$ ls -l /lib/libdb-2.1.2.so
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root       243228 Nov  8 18:55 /lib/libdb-2.1.2.so

funkiest:~$ 

So it's in libc, which you must have or nothing would work,
but it's a symbolic link to /lib/libdb-2.1.2.so

If you have that file, you could just recreate the symbolic
link.  Why it's not there is a more difficult question ...

Hope that helps.
