I've tried to install apache-1.3.33 on a fresh 2005.0 stage3. This failed as apache failed to locate ndbm.h. This file is either provided by gdbm (in /usr/include/gdbm/) or by db-1.* in /usr/include/ndbm.h. Patching my CFLAGS fixed the problem, but this should probably be done automatically by the ebuild.
(In reply to comment #0) > Patching my CFLAGS fixed the problem, but this should probably be done automatically by the ebuild. What do you mean? Post emerge --info output, please.
What I mean is changing CFLAGS to be CFLAGS="-march=athlon64 -O2 -I/usr/include/gdbm". Other emerge info output is not relevant
(In reply to comment #2) > What I mean is changing CFLAGS to be CFLAGS="-march=athlon64 -O2 > -I/usr/include/gdbm". Hmm, weird... :/
The problem is that the configure script does not check where to find ndbm.h, and that db-1.85.h that normally provides /usr/include/ndbm.h is installed allmost always, but not in a regular stage3 and it does not get pulled in either. As apache-1 does depend on gdbm (and any db version) it should be changed to look in /usr/include/gdbm for ndbm.h as that is the correct location for the header that is intended (linking happens against gdbm)
Looking at the DEPEND for apache-1.3.33, I see that we have db in there twice, as well as gdbm I recall something on one of the lists about a db mess, and perhaps it being fixed by an eclass somewhere. We should look into this.

I have run into the same problem - this is a fresh install of 2005.1 on a new server.

hello Jakub, (In reply to comment #13) > emerge -p db-1* I had same problem here. and emerge =db-1.85-r2 helped me out. thanks!
Of course version numbers can only be used with a comparison operator (=, <, <=, >, >=), so: emerge -p =db-1*
(In reply to comment #9) > gentoo@bitblit.net: You could try my workaround, or alternatively merge db-1 for > a workaround Its a horrible kludge but I figured it is the lesser of two evils! (the other being slotting several versions of db - would rather try and keep the slotting down to a minimum). Still this ought to be fixed :-(
I just hit this when trying to install otrs. At any rate, changing the >=sys-libs/db-1.85-r1 to ~sys-libs/db-1.85 in the apache ebuild resolved the issue. Apache then installed the proper db version, rather than the highest version for the highest slotted db package, and my build continued.
The dependency change by wolf31o2 is not the proper fix as apache can and will use both if given the opportunity.
After spending several hours digging into this, I have found the problem to be a false-positive in the helper script find-dbm-lib. I commented out the false positive test, and now the script correctly finds the correct include path for ndbm.h. These fixes are in apache-1.3.33-r13.
