Add your .db files the xxxApp/Db directory. Then modify the DB += line
in the Makefile in that directory. The make system will copy the .db
files from xxxApp/Db to the db/ directory. Make will create the db/
directory if it does not exist. Doing a make distclean (or uninstall) in
your top directory will remove the db/ directory but the xxxApp/Db/x.db
file will still exist.
