Bug Description
= SRU Report =
== Impact ==
Anyone upgrading sks will run into a postinst failure. This has been the case for a few releases, but this isn't a very widely deployed application, and probably only deployed on LTSs.
The package version to BDB version mapping was specific to Debian. It differs in Ubuntu.
Also worth noting that I've requested backporting 1.1.3. LP: #1020098
== Test Case ==
* apt-get install sks
* Install a dump (see README.Debian, one .pgp file is fine)
* apt-get install --reinstall sks (an upgrade to the same version)
== Regression Potential ==
* Not significant.
= Original Report =
The list of BDB_VERSIONs in postinst isn't correct for Ubuntu. This won't be a problem in the far future, as this information now comes from a file generated at build time.
But it is an issue for upgrades at the moment.

This bug was fixed in the package sks - 1.1.3-1ubuntu1
---------------
sks (1.1.3-1ubuntu1) quantal; urgency=low
* Provide OLD_BDB versions for Ubuntu (LP: #1020034) sks/berkeley_ db.active even when we aren't upgrading BDB
* Create /var/lib/
versions.
* Include pagesize and ptree_pagesize in sksconf, so that importing a dump
won't hang (LP: #1019756)
