That’s the old DBRepair.sh shell script

You should now try using the DBRepair executable program for your system.  
It fixes far more and faster than the old shell script ever could.

The post containing the binaries is here:

> DBRepair v0.1999.10 DBRepair v0.1999.10 is now available for your consideration & testing. It will expire in 14 days from today. If there are no bug, failures, or anything missing, and the documentation is completed by then, we’ll advance to first production release. Each ZIP file now contains an initial Proof-of-Concept for documentation in both .md (Markdown) and HTML form. It’s mostly complete but very rough in styling. There will be a Wiki on GitHub when this is completed…

Given you’re using a backup now, I would still have it verify the dbs are undamaged.
