I beg your pardon. My role is recent (a week) and I'm still learning my way thru procedures and conventions :-). Current bsddb module in 2.5.1 supports up to BerkeleyDB 4.5. There is support for 4.6 in trunk (future 2.6, I guess) and I'm working in a private branch at the moment, since I have no commit access to python repository. That private version is intented to be merged into python 2.6 by Greg, when time comes. My guess is that 2.5 branch is still open to more patches than pure security/stability patches, so "backporting" BerkeleyDB 4.6 support seems reasonable (to me). If I'm wrong, please educate me :-). This backport would include also stability patches. For example, I just solved a memory leak. Greg, any opinion?.
