db1_dump185 is not in any Debian package. Debian has db4.
db1 is for RedHat people only who install RPMs from untrusted
sources.  ;-)

You could either try to build that Perl module mentioned on the
page with /usr/src/asterisk-x.x.x/main/db1-ast or use

asterisk -rx 'database show'

BTW the license looks somewhat ok at first sight:
