oriented database ZODB, which
sage/build/pkgs/conway_polynomials/SPKG.txt: * #12205: Rewrite database to not 
use ZODB

The last line says everything. (And the upstream documentation should stop 
referring to it.)

(I don't use sagemath and that's the only dep I have checked)

The long story is that I was surprised to see the popcon stat of python-zodb 
increasing so much recently. Which would be nice if it was for a good reason 
(after reading https://trac.sagemath.org/ticket/10353 I think that upstream 
underestimates ZODB but well, maybe there are other DB that fit better for 
their use). Graph of both sagemath and python-zodb:

In any case, I'll have to care about reverse dependencies. There will be major 
updates of ZODB this year.
