Changed to sync bug as the delta, which involves the ELF binary not
exposing certain properties in arm64 (see LP: #2122602), appears to have
been fixed.

The Debian version builds properly in a PPA:
https://launchpad.net/~chawthorne/+archive/ubuntu/debian-
db5.3/+builds?build_text=db5.3&build_state=built

Additionally, running "readelf -n /usr/lib/aarch64-linux-
gnu/libdb-5.3.so" on the Debian build shows the expected properties,
meaning the fix exists within the Debian version.

This package has no autopkgtests, so I installed my PPA version of the
package into an lxd container. Then, I added arm64 as an architecture
with "dpkg --add-architecture arm64", updated, and ran "apt install
libdb5.3t64:arm64". From here, doing "readelf -n /usr/lib/aarch64-linux-
gnu/libdb-5.3.so" as before showed the same expected output.

As a final check, I started a new container and confirmed that the new
version of the package could be upgraded to from the previous version,
following the documentation here:
https://documentation.ubuntu.com/project/contributors/merging/test-the-
new-build/#test-upgrading-from-the-previous-version
