So build-depending on libdb-dev should mean you wouldn't need to change the b-d ever again unless there's an incompatible API change that isn't handled by the upstream code. Furthermore, it would be possible to switch to a newer version with just a binNMU. Given your transient data description, I doubt there will be any trouble with you always keeping up with what is deemed the "current" version. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
