I asked Igor about it when sponsoring the package. His reply was: "I replaced it with Berkeley DB a long time ago. I don't remember my exact reasons. I probably wasn't thinking of just Debian or even just Linux. I think Berkeley DB is somewhat more ubiquitous and, besides, claims to have portable binary data files." I hope he won't mind me citing this response here. -- Dmitry Shachnev
