libdb was removed from glibc in glibc-2.2, but because the glibc folks
had added symbol versions to it (and as a result programs linked against
glibc-libdb wouldn't run against sleepycat-libdb) many distributions
still maintain the glibc fork of libdb, rather than rebuild everything
that uses it (and require third-party binaries that use it to be rebuilt
too).

Debian is transitioning away from it at the moment.
