Install the cdb package:
http://cr.yp.to/cdb/install.html
Then do this:
cdbdump < vpasswd.cdb | sed 's/^[^:]*:\(.*\)->\(.*\)$/\1:\2/;/^$/d' \
> vpasswd
NB. This will fail if any of the fields contain "->", which is likeliest
in the crypted password field. To check for this, do:
cat vpasswd.cdb | grep -e '->'
