the only way i got sendmail to work was to get libdb2 version 2.4.14-3
(it was in incoming i don't really know what happened to it). and then
put it on hold because there is a libdb2 version 2.6.4-1 which screws
everything up (which in the meantime was renamed, etc.). anyway libdb2
2.4.14-3 doesn't use epochs so dselect won't install version 2.4.14-3
even if it replaces 2.6.4-1 in the distribution. you'll have to
install it manually.
so having said that libdb2 2.4.14-3 finally got sendmail working
again (i have the same setup, kernel 2.2.3 glibc2.1). oh, i still use
the old sendmail i never got sendmail compiled against 2.6.4 to work.
