yes, i seems that berkdb should be renamed to gdbm.

where does toggle-where-was-i come from? i don't have it.

------- Comment #2 From Dan Girellini 2005-09-03 14:47:37 0000 -------
It's part of app-xemacs/edit-utils.

------- Comment #3 From Geoff Leach 2006-06-08 02:14:29 0000 -------
Setting berkdb does indeed enable gdbm.

Updated ebuild for 21.4.19 in bug 97786 has both a gdbm and a berkdb flag. 

I tried toggle-where-was-i for the first time :)

Created an attachment (id=100194) [details]
Patch to fix gdbm / berkdb confusion.


I've created a patch (which I have attached to this bug report) which does two
things: first, it cleans up the current berkdb/gdbm confusion, so that if
berkdb is specified, then that is what is used, and if gdbm is specified, then
that is what is used;  second, this patch causes xemacs to use db-4 rather than
db-1.

------- Comment #5 From Hans de Graaff 2006-12-10 03:43:26 0000 -------
This is now fixed in xemacs 21.4.19-r2, using a combination of my own and
Adam's patches.
