Once upon a time, Jan Staněk <jstanek@xxxxxxxxxx> said:The topic of BerkeleyDB v6 in Fedora was already discussed at this list [1], and it turned out that peaceful cooperation of multiple libdb versions in system is very problematic. As some packages cannot use newer versions, we are basically stuck with v5 - unless we get rid of it altogether or find another solution.Why does v6 having an incompatible license mean we should get rid of v5? BerkeleyDB is widely used because it meets a need, and v5 meets that need in a license-compatible way for many programs. What benefit is there in trying to remove it?
NO NO NO AND NO AGAIN * spamassassin * postfix * netatalk these are only after thinking 5 seconds which *heavily* makes use of itif it ain't broken don't break it - nobody is going to migrate his bayes to MySQL in case of SpamAssassin, rebuild his netatalk cnid-db or rewrite all his complex postfix configurations and scripts generating hash-tables and run postmap on them for some *political* reasons
yes, i can build libdb5 at my own - but to gain what?
