I personally don't have any concerns, but perhaps a "self contained
change" would be good simply to ensure that everyone clearly aware of
this change?
Thanks Ankur, that makes sense. I have proposed a change now:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/NSSDBMRemoval
Now that pesign package has been updated to use the new SQLite format,
I'm going to re-disable dbm in the F-33 build soon.
