I have never seen a system actually using this so I suggest to remove during 
the trixie release cylce,
i.e. dropping the Build-Depends on libdb-dev.

Alternatively, it could be split out to a separate binary package, possibly 
with other less used modules.

I would volunteer to provide a patch for this but only if it will be considered.

Thanks for your comments,
Bastian
