I hadn't upgraded since Feb. 21st.  apt-listchanges did not change;
neither did any version of libdb.

2008-03-03 09:07:02 upgrade python2.4 2.4.4-7 2.4.4-8

2008-03-03 09:16:41 upgrade python2.5 2.5.1-7 2.5.2-1

/usr/bin/python points to python2.4.

Hmm:

  * Build-depend on libdb4.5-dev on all architectures; 4.6 is seriously
    broken when used with the _bsddb extension.

Does this mean Python downgraded from 4.6 to 4.5?  Will that prevent
4.5 from opening databases?
