These should be the important packages:

> db4-4.7.25-22.el6.x86_64
> db4-devel-4.7.25-22.el6.x86_64

Interesting. I wonder if the code in Xastir is keying off the version-and-date string instead of just the version string. I added that check because w/o it Xastir was falling over when the Berkeley DB header files and .so didn't match. Ideally the check code should just be looking at that "4.7.25" number.

I'll check into this.
