I'm not sure what you mean by "ldb". I assume that is a typo of "libdb"?


Most OS distributors have moved to TrivialDB as an open-source 
replacement for BerkleyDB. Squid has been updated to support the OS 
provided library.

As for plans, there are none that I am aware of. As with all things 
future support depends on what people want to contribute towards.
