Title:
  Invalid Type db4 to create db with php

Status in db4.8 package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: libdb4.8

  I have found some php skrit not working anymore with lucid so I
  debugged the code an found out that the php code like:

  <?php
  $dbh = dba_open( "test.db", "c", "db4") or die( "Couldn't open Database" );
  ?>

  leads to this error:

  php test.php 
  PHP Notice:  dba_open(): fop_read_meta: /home/user/test.db: unexpected file type or format in /home/user/test.php on line 2
  PHP Notice:  dba_open(): /home/user/test.db: Invalid type 5 specified in /home/user/test.php on line 2
  PHP Warning:  dba_open(test.db,c): Driver initialization failed for handler: db4: Invalid argument in /home/user/test.php on line 2
  Couldn't open Database

  after upgrade libdb4.8 with the one from maverik
  (libdb4.8_4.8.30-1_i386.deb) it works again.

  Cherrs,
  Brill
