Hi,

This patchset improves our guile-dbi and guile-dbd-* packages. The two most
significant ones are:

1. It updates guile-dbi and guile-dbd-* upstream to
https://github.com/opencog/guile-dbi . It simplifies and deduplicates the
package definitions of guile-dbd-* by inheriting from guile-dbi.

2. Additionally, it removes the tight LDFLAGS coupling between guile-dbi and
guile-dbd-*. With this patchset, guile-dbd-* are not inputs of guile-dbi. They
are picked up from the profile using the LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable
specified in native-search-paths. This way, the user can choose to only
install the specific guile-dbd- package that they are interested in and not
pull in all guile-dbd-* packages.

Regards,
Arun
