+Subject: [PATCH] Fall back to DB_PRIVATE on DB_VERSION_MISMATCH from rpmdb
+ open
+
+This happens when libdb or glibc gets updated in the transaction so
+its version appears newer than the currently used one requiring libdb
+to reconstruct its environment, but the environment is in use by the
+running transaction so it can't do that. Since libsolv only opens
+it for reading, DB_PRIVATE is the lesser evil compared to just failing.
+Also print out a diagnostic so we don't need to keep guessing whether
+the fix is in place or not. dbenv->errx() needs to be used for the
+message to get through in the right context, fprintf() get either eaten
+or printed long after the fact.
