Bug Description

$ sudo apt-get -s install libdb-dev
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
  libdb-dev: Depends: libdb4.7-dev (= 4.7.25-0ubuntu1) but it is not going to be installed
E: Broken packages

$ sudo apt-get -s install libdb-dev libdb4.7-dev
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
  libdb-dev: Conflicts: libdb4.7-dev but 4.7.25-0ubuntu1 is to be installed
E: Broken packages

This is because of:

Package: libdb-dev
Version: 4.7.25-0ubuntu1
Depends: libdb4.7-dev (= 4.7.25-0ubuntu1)
Conflicts: libdb1-dev, libdb2-dev, libdb3-dev, libdb4.2-dev, libdb4.3-dev, libdb4.4-dev, libdb4.5-dev, libdb4.7-dev

libdb-dev depends and conflicts on libdb4.7-dev. I guess the conflict should be on libdb4.6-dev (the previous version) and not libdb4.7-dev (the current one).
