clone 169830 -1 reassign -1 libdb1-compat retitle -1 libdb1-compat: please provide db_dump185 command in the libdb1-compat package tags -1 + patch thanks
I've thought a little more and decided to clone this bug report. The reason is that only the libdb1-compat package or something relying on appears to be capable of providing the db_dump185 command, which appears to still be necessary for legacy database files. (See earlier in this bug report for my analysis of the code.) It is easy to implement in db1-compat using the db4.3 version of db_dump185 linked against libdb1.so (patch provided to do this earlier in this bug report). The only changes I would suggest to my patch are to mention it in the control file package description and to change my name on the changelog :) Also, if db1-compat does decide to offer this, then db2 can just drop it (or drop out of Debian completely, as is the plan, I am led to believe). I haven't made this bug a wishlist as there is no working db_dump185 currently present in Debian, and that is a significant problem for some users. Feel free to change this!
