Bug#621415: Still uses libdb4.8

[Ondřej Surý]

Hi Damyan,

the new apr-util was uploaded to unstable, which may help removing the
libdb dependency, since Stephan has removed the libdb4.8-dev from
libaprutil1-dev dependencies. See #621366.

Anyway it may require some mangling to not include it, but thank you
for quick reply and your willingness to do more work than just
recompile with newer libdb. It's much appreciated.

O.
