[DRE-maint] Bug#556576: libdb-ruby1.8: compatibility checks too strict

[Aaron M. Ucko]

reopen 556576
found 556576 0.6.5-4
thanks

Upgrading libdb4.8 to version 4.8.26-1 brings back these errors, though
in this case there shouldn't actually be a problem:

/usr/lib/ruby/1.8/x86_64-linux/bdb.so:  (NotImplementedError)
BDB needs compatible versions of libdb & db.h
	you have db.h version 4.8.24 and libdb version 4.8.26
	from /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/dhelp.rb:21

Please fix the extension to ignore patch levels and let the shlibs
system take care of the rest.

Thanks!
