A couple of issues/questions:

I don't see the point in the obsoletes of ancient db versions being in this
compat package.  Honestly I don't see the point of them being in the base db
package (since we don't support upgrades from any release which would have them
and there is probably never been a Fedora release that had them) but that's a
different review ticket.  I have no idea what yum would do with an unversioned
non-provided obsolete that appears in more than one package, but it's probably
not something we want to worry about.

I can't actually install these packages since they conflict with the existing
compat-db package which is a rather essential system component.  I'm not sure
how I could actually do that without composing a new OS tree so I'm just not
going to worry about it.

What's the point of the -devel package?  I was under the impression that we
didn't want -devel packages for compat libraries, and the existing compat-db
package doesn't have one.

What happens to the /usr/bin/db45* executables and /usr/bin/berkeley_db45_svc?

After this split, what becomes of the db 4.3 stuff?
