 dbm package
 ///////////
 
-The ``dbm`` package is to collect all dbm-related modules. Do note
-that both ``anydbm`` and ``whichdb`` are merged into a single module.
-This was done as both modules currently have minimal functionality and
-have no name conflicts.

 Current Name Replacement Name
 ================= ===============================
-anydbm dbm.tools
+anydbm dbm.tools [1]_
 dbhash dbm.db
 dbm dbm.ndbm
 dumbdm dbm.dumb
 gdbm dbm.gnu
-whichdb dbm.tools
+whichdb dbm.tools [1]_
 ================= ===============================
 
 
+.. [1] ``dbm.tools`` can combine ``anybdbm`` and ``whichdb`` since the public
+ API for both modules has no name conflict.
