Package: dhelp
Version: 0.5.24-0.1
Severity: critical

When installing most packages, I get one or more of the following messages:

  /usr/sbin/dhelp_parse: /usr/lib/libdb-4.5.so: no version information
  available (required by /usr/sbin/dhelp_parse)

Then it hangs until I hit C-c. In some cases, it's rendered the package
that called it broken so that I had to uninstall the broken package.

My (hardly optimal) workaround was to uninstall dhelp.

Tagged critical as it breaks other packages.
