 ah ok, not a problem then - i thought the existing version was more
recent than that, missed that it was 1.8 rather than 1.18.

Issue, yes. But you are upgrading from rather old version of libgdbm3.
According to https://tracker.debian.org/gdbm, it predates even
old-stable.

Since Debian does not support skip upgrades, this issue is not
release-critical. Downgrading severity.

I just checked in virtual machine, upgrade stable (1.8.3-14) -> testing
(1.18.1-4) seems fine. Please, consider upgrading gradually.

I doubt that release team would approve unblock for issue of upsupported
upgrade, sorry.
