On most systems, the default Python bsddb module is Python's module. On FreeBSD, we build one based on the bsddb in base and make Python's a seperate port. Our default works with Exaile, but causes a bit of oddness, such as file paths inexplicably relocating. This oddness may cause further unseen consequences, so instead we will rely on databases/py-bsddb to keep in sync with expected behaviors. If users decide that potentially broken behavior is good enough for them and they do not want this extra dependency, I have left the rope on the chandelier for them. How-To-Repeat: After setting up Exaile with paths to the music directories, exaile will create the file: ~/.local/share/exail/music.db.db This file should really have only one db extension, and this artifact is tied to some differenence in behavior between the the two flavors of bsddb modules.
