It should be removed because its an oldlibs, and has no rdepends, or any build-dependencies anymore
apt-cache rdepends and reverse-

I'd rather not. I added this at the time not because anything in Debian depended on it (indeed, I made sure nothing ever did), but because I knew of commercial applications that needed the old libdb. "Nothing in Ubuntu" depends on it is a bad reason to remove it given that nothing ever did depend on it to start with.
