Package: libdb-dev
Severity: important
Whilst creating a new sendmail package, I pulled in the current
libdb-dev (4.8), and found that the built package is broken - at least
the db related portions.
>> # makemap hash access < access
>> access.db: Invalid type 5 specified
>> makemap: error opening type hash map access: Invalid argument
Downgrading to db4.7 allows things to once again work.
A search showed this to be a known issue:
