This is odd. First of all, libdb-4.5.so seems to be available since Dec
4th.

And claws-mail need not link against libdb at all, since it is libetpan
that links against it and BuildRequires db4-devel. It's libetpan-config
which returns the libraries it is linked against,

$ ./libetpan-config --libs
-L/usr/lib -letpan -pthread -lssl -lcrypto -ldb-4.3 -lsasl2

and which causes apps to link against them, too.
