How to install libdb4.8++-dev or equivalent on 13.10?

I am trying to test a mod that I've created of Peercoin.

I need to install libdb4.8++-dev, but it is not available.

How can I install it or an equivalent?

Note: this is not a dupe since I cannot install a package of my custom alteration of Peercoin.

Well, it compiles with libdb++-dev and sudo apt-get install libminiupnpc-dev -y thanks to this guy.

However, "Upstream Bitcoin considers db-4.8 to be the only supported version. 5.1 is known to work, buts databases are incompatible with official builds created with db-4.8."

If mining, add the -detachdb flag to ./ppcoin-qt (probably best to just do it anyway).
