[Pkg-bitcoin-devel] Bug#731953: bitcoin: Package is allowed to build with too-new libdb, resulting in non-portability of wallets

[Brian May]

Hello,

Is this bug still relevant?

My understanding is that upstream switched from bdb to leveldb:
https://github.com/bitcoin/bips/blob/master/bip-0050.mediawiki

Which presumably means compatibility issues with older bdb no longer
matters any more.

Although I see bitcoin-qt depends on libdb5.3++, so it is possible my
understanding my not be correct.

If I am correct though, can this bug be closed?
