Devs, The "[Postfix] Warn that databases need regeneration" thread touched on a proposed change from BDB to another, either cdb or lmdb. This loosely mentions "licensing" issues. What licensing issue is the problem? The Oracle open-source license is OSI-certified and permits use of Berkeley DB in open source projects ... https://www.oracle.com/database/technologies/related/berkeleydb/berkeleydb-l... Is there a question whether Arch or Postfix are open-source? Seems like they certainly qualify. The larger issue is what of other packages using a db backend, like Apache basic auth and the htdbm or dbmmanage tools? This begins to impact a number of server operations if db is dropped and other packages are impacted. This may be a non-issue, but not knowing what all db is integrated with, the prospect of db just going away is a bit concerning. So is this proposed change just for postfix, or could it impact other packages? -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.
