I just installed it from sources here. But it was quite a pain to get it 
running. First of all, the db-sources didn't make a shared library, so I had 
to generate these with

gcc -shared -Wl,-libdb2.so.2 \
    -o libdb2.so.2.7.7 *.o

For some reason I had to copy all the .o's in a directory. Don't remember 
anymore why. Once I had this done, I let it install, removed 
/usr/lib/libdb2.so.2.4.14, run ldconfig, compiled hotkeys (with the correct 
configure-options), moved libdb2.so.2.4.14 back (my xemacs depends on it), 
re-run ldconfig and hotkeys was running. 
For some time I had troubles running hotkeys, 'till I found out that hotkeys 
linked against libxml and not libxml2.
 Yes, there should be some update of hotkeys, as well as db2, like db2.2.7.7 
seems to be the last official 2-version. But as I still ain't got my 
DSL-connection, I still didn't try out Mandrake-cooker :(
