rebase.db is new introduction of rebase-4,
but as you found the maintainer made a package error

As workaround with rebase-4.0.0-1 you can, from ash,

mkdir /usr/etc
rebaseall

the database will be created as
/usr/etc/rebase.db.i386

or wait until the maintainer upgrades the package and than it will be
/etc/rebase.db.i386
