The cside mixminion node has suffered a major problem.

As a result of a normal Debian testing update the version of Python
on the system was updated.

Unfortunately this update included a downgrade of the libDB used by
python. The net result is that the mixminion internal databases become
*unreadable*

I've moved the entire "work" directory out of the way and restarted the
node.

I suspect several messages are lost.

regards,

Colin
