The link points to the berkeley backend in the default case.

spec file is not the place for marketing... It should be correct, simple, 
sound from a packaging perspective and work out of the box for most 
configurations. When there was no daemon it was sound to have a separate
package since it adds some dependencies on db, and was optionnal. Now
with the daemon having a separated package complicates the matter a lot,
given that both must be installed at the same time anyway.

What could make sense would be to ship the daemon in a separate package. But 
I think it is better in the main package. Do you want to have the dameon
in a separate package?
