Could someone give me an example of a package that upgraded from libdb3.3 to libdb4.0, so I can see how the conversion of the database files has been managed?
Among the packages I installed (so that I can quickly check which ones require libdb-3.3) only an handful is using sleepycat db, but either they avoid the problem using the same library (like pam) or the database format shouldn't matter (postfix keeps the source data in text files).
I'd like to take the same approach than pam (i.e. using libdb3.3 ;-), but florin modified cyrus-imapd to link against libdb4.0, so I think there should be an upgrade path for existing users (btw, the same applies to cyrus-sasl in main).

Bye
