Differences between LinkDB and Webgraph's inlink database?

[Marek Bachmann <m....@uni-kassel.de>]

Hello people,

can someone explain to me where the differences between the linkdb and 
webgraph's inlink database are?

As I have understood it, the linkdb holds the sites that are linking to 
a url and the anchor texts.

But this is nearly the same as on this page is written:
http://wiki.apache.org/nutch/NewScoring
"The inlink database is a listing of url and all of its inlinks."

Why do we have both databases?

Thanks

You understand correctly but we have both because there is no patch for 
NUTCH-1181 yet, you're more than welcome to provide some!
