Description-en: Berkeley database routines [glibc 2.0/2.1 compatibility]
libdb is a library for manipulating database files, developed at Berkeley.
.
It supports three kinds of file formats:
* btree. A representation of a sorted, balanced tree structure.
* hashed. An extensible, dynamic hashing scheme.
* UNIX file oriented. A byte stream file with fixed or variable length
records.
.
This library exists for compatibility with applications built against
glibc 2.0 or 2.1. There is intentionally no corresponding development
package. Do not link new applications against this library!
