aports

deprecation of berkley db

Oracle has changed the license of bdb to AGPL, making it unsuitable of inclusion in aports. This means we will have to remove the package from aports and fix all dependent packages.

For postfix, this means using lmdb and dropping support for hash and btree databases. Before upgrading, update all references of these types in /etc/postfix/main.cf to lmdb
