Bug#190862: I'm not sure it's the same thing, but...
Hello,
The original bug report being so terse, I'm not sure my problem is the same
than the one of the original submitter, but I guess so. Or at least, it's
really related. Here is a sniplet of my problem:
<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
mquinson@galadriel:/tmp$ sudo apt-get -d install libdb4.1-dev

ii libdb2-dev 2.7.7.0-8 The Berkeley database routines (development files).
pn libdb4.1-dev <none> (no description available)
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Why should I say "Yes" to a question asking me if I want to remove my good
old libdb2-dev, if at the end, the package isn't desinstalled (which is
exactly what I want).
Keep the good work on !
Bye, Mt.
