Hello Michael, Thanks for the review. I've dropped my work on dbxml due to a change of jobs, but my former colleague Daniël de Kok (cc) has taken over. He's found that dbxml works fine with BDB 5.1, producing backward-compatible files. Greg Burd, formerly of Oracle, has confirmed that this should be the case in general (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/157165/comments/20). README.source should not have been there. The relevant info is in README.Debian. Apologies for that. I hope Daniël will be able to fix the remaining issue.
