As you have discovered, libdb3.5 is required for several essential parts of the Debian 12 release, such as libpam-modules. If you can't solve your security issues you'll need to avoid using Debian. It is likely that your "security issues" are that something says a particular version of libdb has a certain bug and must not be used, but you will probably find upon research that Debian has already patched that particular bug or is not affected by it in the first place. Looking for the particular CVE number at https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/ can often help to resolve these sorts of issues. Thanks, Andy -- https://bitfolk.com/ -- No-nonsense VPS hosting
