There is nothing dubious about it. There are simply two versions of "db"
available. pkg_add simply does not guess what you want it to do.

You found out whats discribed in the manpage:
In case of ambiguities, for instance: pkg_add screen (matches
screen-4.02 and screen-4.02-static), pkg_add will error out, unless it
is invoked in interactive mode (option -i).

Answer with 0, 1 or 2?
You could also specify the version you want in the pkg_add invocation:
pkg_add db-4.2.52p8
/B.
