package. It provides some optional database functionality, but the
underlying database can be any of libdb, gdbm, or postgresql. When I
first turned this on for Fedora, in response to a request in bz
581614, I chose libdb for reasons that I no longer remember. So now I
need to choose between:
- libdb (going to AGPLv3+)
- gdbm (GPLv3+)
- postgresql (PostgreSQL, essentially MIT)
You'll have the option of moving to libdb5 , without a license change or need to convert data. That should be easiest, at least in the medium term while libdb5 is actively maintained.
