Indeed, you are right, NetBSD is using Berkeley DB release 1.85 for license reasons. From http://netbsd.org/Documentation/software/3rdparty/: db: Version in tree: 1.85 Current Version: 1.86/4.3.28 Maintainer(external): Keith Bostic <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Archive Site: http://www.sleepycat.com/download/index.shtml Notes: Note that we cannot use db 2.x for license reasons. Three bug fixes against 1.85 sent back to bostic. Changes to man/recno.3, hash/hsearch.c, and hash/ndbm.c (serious). Import of DB 1.85 was done via a sh script which converted the distribution into the netbsd format. The script can be found in src/lib/libc/db/db2netbsd.
