curious: why change the db level?

db4 seems to be the latest version widely deployed among recent RPM based systems. db3-devel for example is not available for RHEL3 to my knowledge.


Ideally the most recent stable httpd version released should use the most recent stable dependancies available. If vendors want to change this to match vendor specific behavior that's fine, but I think the official Apache releases should try be as up to date as possible.
