The current plan is to not ship v6 in F21, and there are no agreed plans

Yet Oracle advertises Fedora's use of Berkeley DB in a recent release
announcement:
You are talking past each other. Oracle is talking about v5 in that release
even if they are saying it in a v6 announcement. v6 is the one that
Miloslav says isn't being looked at in future releases.
I hope that one day we will get rid of BDB and move to MDB:

Besides other things it should have significantly better performance...

“Open source Fedora package maintainer, Lubomir Rintel, says "Berkeley DB
has quietly served behind the scenes as the database for the RPM Package
Manager. It has proven itself time and time again as a robust and
efficient storage engine. It stores the meta information of the installed
rpms. Under heavy workloads, BDB proves itself reliable. Countless people
that use popular Linux distributions have used BDB through RPM and never
knew it. With this new release, BDB continues its tradition of being a
solid storage engine"”
