+This patch originates from the Debian project, see https://www.debian.org/
+
+03db4.dpatch  by  <hesso@pool.math.tu-berlin.de>
+
+
+libdb4 compatibility adjustments.
+
+In particular, this patch adds extra file permission checking and passes the
+DB_CREATE flag to the first invocation of db_open on the file's database
+structure, which rids us of the following message:
+
+  BDB0635 DB_CREATE must be specified to create databases.
