Hi all, On Mon, Oct 27, 2025 at 11:14:35PM +0100, Samuel Thibault wrote: > Hello Igor, > > Do you remember why you introduced patch > > patches/0004-Berkeley-DB-instead-of-GDBM.patch > > to make freespeech use libdb instead of libgdbm? > > I guess we'll have to remove that patch. I asked Igor about it when sponsoring the package. His reply was: "I replaced it with Berkeley DB a long time ago. I don't remember my exact reasons. I probably wasn't thinking of just Debian or even just Linux. I think Berkeley DB is somewhat more ubiquitous and, besides, claims to have portable binary data files." I hope he won't mind me citing this response here. -- Dmitry Shachnev

I migrated the package into using gdbm. Samuel
