Berkely Database in the repos is inexplicably locked at 5.3.something. Current versions are north of 12. Might be north of 13 by now.
Is there a reason the repo never gets updated?
Is there a PPA where a version released in the past decade would be available?
According to the changelog, I need to get to at least 6.0.19
New Features in 6.0.19 Fixed bugs when attempting to open non-DB files as if they were databases. If encryption was active, an assertion failure would occur. If encryption was not active, the error message "BDB0178 Encrypted database: no encryption flag" would incorrectly imply that a password was required. [#21408]
Thanks
