Probably easier is compiling rpm with both Berkeley DB and sqlite3,
rpm uses certain Berkeley DB defines and structure names, and its  
easier to just
use what is in db.h than it is to figger out what defines/structs are  
needed
and where/why/how to supply an alternative definition.

But there are a few people who have managed to compile rpm without
Berkeley DB and db.h.

Then all that needs changing is these two macros (3==bdb, 4=sqlite3)

%_dbapi 3
%_dbapi_rebuild 3
