What should be available are libraries that are as current as possible.
As an example: FC4 provides
/usr/lib/libdb.so.2
Program requires a later version.
libdb.so.3 is needed by gmc-4.5.51-16.i386
This gmc package has a dependency on Berkeley DB 3.x, which hasn't been
current since before RHL 8.0 (which is why it's not even in compat-db
any more).

Thanks!
I was surprised that the lib version is one version newer than the one
supplied in gnome-libs. Nothing seems to need this older library version
either. How did an older version than shipped with RHL 8.0 end up in
current gnome-libs?
