Hi Satheesaran,

The libgfdb was moved to glusterfs-server package via
http://review.gluster.org/#/c/9983

As per commit,  libgfdb is only used by processes that run on Gluster
servers. There is
no need to have this library (and its sqlite dependency) on any system
that installs a glusterfs package.
