There's also TDB from Samba.

I certainly don't know RPM's requirements, but it seems shortsighted
from a long-term maintenance point of view to implement a custom
database, both from a format and a code point of view.

The prime reason to change away from BDB is "doubts about its future and
level of maintenance" - how is reinventing a wheel any easier than
keeping an existing wheel working?
