IIRC when using newaliases (sendmail) it builds a BDB out of the text
files.
Is that affected by a removal of db5 in Debian?
I've now tested it with apt. sendmail doesn't depend on the db5
packages, but cyrus-imap and sasl2 do - at least in trixie.
Is removal of db5.3 a real thing for the next release?
Should I file a bug for the cyrus packages?
While it's unclear if db5.3 can be removed from forky, all packages
must come up with at least a transition plan. Please file these
bugs.
The time on db5.3 has been ticking since the license change by
Oracle, quite some time ago.
