  because that's db4.5-util, had you searched with apt-cache, you would
have found.

 # apt-get install $@
 E: Couldn't find package db4.5-utils
 # shift
 # apt-get install $@
 E: Couldn't find package db4.6-utils
 
 OK,
 # set apt-listchanges
 # apt-get --purge remove $@
 # apt-get install $@
 fixed it, hopefully.
