Hello Gabriele,

Htdig does not depend on an external  libdb3 /libdb2 (since it uses its 
own version of it, already discussed). I was thinking about 
externalising libhtdig (and libhtdigphp). Forcibly, those libs would be 
different for the two htdig versions, and thus conflicting. To arrange 
the different db directories, or config file locations would be a minor 
issue.

Both versions (minor issue) also depend on libnewt0, and conflict with 
libmifluz0 (ideally, both libmifluz0 and htdig externalise the 
conflicting set of libs and both depend on it. But since Mifluz is very 
similar to Ht://Dig, I don't expect people to install both on the same 
system.

I'll do my best to get both packages into Sarge. At the moment, they 
conflict. If we can change the issue later on, all for the better...

Robert
