Just an FYI, but this has a *very* negative effect on BLFS where we
assume that BDB is installed. Giving users the choice of which DB to
install effectively makes BDB an optional package now in LFS, but the
BLFS packages have all removed the BDB dependencies (even the required
ones), rendering the build instructions *wrong* if a user elected to
follow the LFS book and not install BDB.

Shouldn't this have been discussed first?
