Berkeley DB

Hello,
I am package maintainer for Fedora and RHEL. I found out,  Your application
can be built with multiple databases(Berkeley DB , SQLite, GDBM,...). I
would like to ask if there can occur some problems with compatibility after
change(upgrade) this database from Berkeley DB to another?

Thanks
Best regards
Filip Januš

You should really read the BerkeleyDB documentation about that. In
short, there's a method to upgrade Berkeley DB databases.

If you're talking about the APIs -- again, the Berkeley DB documentation
should have something to say about API compatibility.
