Description protrans 2002-01-13 13:25:44 UTC
I noticed dbm.h is include in the tarball, but after installation, dbm.h is
nowhere to be found (gdbm.h is in /usr/include)

Is it a bug or I'm being ignorant?

Thanks,

Joseph

I've verified this on 4 machines and they all have this file installed, the
contents file at /var/db/pkg/sys-libs/gdbm-1.8.0-r3/CONTENTS also says :

obj /usr/include/gdbm.h 249C134B8037FB4AF93466121299C19F 1007603605

Bug was valid after all. Apparently gdbm has a seperate install-compat make
target which install compatibility headers ndbm.h and dbm.h. New ebuild has been
committed to cvs which isntalls those to /usr/include/gdbm since redhat uses
that dir and to avoid potential conflict with other db libs.
