--dbext= doesn't have any effect #40

Hello,

while translating the man page into German, I stumbled upon this:

--dbext=extension Set an alternate sync database extension.

Because I haven't used this option ever before, I tried to test it, but regardless of what I use as a value, the output of Pacinfo is the same. Pacinfo even doesn't complain when I use any bogus value or leave the value empty. I think, this option needs some more explained.
