Description:

I am running Postfix with cdb database files (tinycdb implementation). Cdb is gaining popularity amongst Postfix admins due to its better performance and smaller size compared to the traditional Berkeley DB hash/btree databases.

Cdb is read-only so not suitable for Postfix r/w databases, but it is a very useful option nevertheless ("postmap" also rebuilds hash/btree files from scratch anyway).
The Arch Postfix package already has dependencies on ldap, mysql, postgresql, sqlite and others, so this one small library doesn't add much weight to the package.

Additional info:

See http://www.postfix.org/CDB_README.html for more information.

Steps to reproduce:

See the diff in attachment.
tinycdb package is in [community].

   postfix_cdb.diff (0.9 KiB)

Could you try tinycdb-0.78-1 and postfix-2.9.3-2 from [testing] and see if everything behaves as expected?

Seems fine, both i686 and x86_64. Thanks!
