We already have several databases for different things:

        updatedb (fast lookup of local files)
        mandb   (man pages)
        rpmdb   (yes, even on debian boxes)
        sasldbconverter2 (for SASL - linux securty/login stuff)
        *db4.3* (Berkeley v4.3 Database - used by apt-get/dpkg, Apache,
                python, libns-db, postfix, etc)

In fact, looks like a debian "testing" box would be disfunctional
without Berkeley Database. Would that work?

Thanks for pointing these out.

I did find that libdb-4.2 was installed on SuSE and RedHat systems, and a libodbc was on my SuSE system. Libdb-4.2 would help manage some of the SA objects to a file, but is limited in its data storage and retrieval capabilities. If a true relational database couldn't be used, libdb would definitely be useful.
