db lib selection under Debian

[root]

(CURRENT)

The configure checks for finding Berkeley DB don't work under Debian -
newer db packages use /usr/include/db.h and/or -ldb instead of versioned
variants.

Originally I had hoped to write a patch, but I'm afraid the combination of
what I know about autoconf and about what INN needs (not enough together)
defeats this.

Instead, I'll list the various options available under Debian. Packages
not named xxx-dev should probably be ignored for this purpose, but I'll
list them for completeness. (As an aside, when using Berkeley DB, it
might be useful to use the same library for ndbm.h functionality. This
is done by #define DB_DBM_HSEARCH 1 #include <db.h> instead of #include
<ndbm.h>, and avoids getting a different version of the library for this.)

Format: release codename, package, path in package (only main include
and library)
