I'm trying to build kdevelop-3.3, but the compile fails on undefined references to methods in sys-libs/db. I'm including the dump from the screen, but the highlights are the failure to find the referenced methods followed by nm output showing that the method is definitely in the /usr/lib/libdb-4.2.so file... Everything looks fine on my end (even the libtool command looks good in that it is linking in the -ldb so the references should be satisfied), so I don't know why it should be failing... /bin/sh ../../libtool --silent --tag=CXX --mode=link i686-pc-linux-gnu-g++ -Wno-long-long -Wundef -ansi -D_XOPEN_SOURCE=500 -D_BSD_SOURCE -Wcast-align -Wconversion -Wchar-subscripts -Wall -W -Wpointer-arith -DNDEBUG -DNO_DEBUG -O2 -O2 -march=athlon -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer -Wformat-security -Wmissing-format-attribute -Wno-non-virtual-dtor -fno-exceptions -fno-check-new -fno-common -DQT_CLEAN_NAMESPACE -DQT_NO_ASCII_CAST -DQT_NO_STL -DQT_NO_COMPAT -DQT_NO_TRANSLATION -o libkdevcatalog.la -rpath /usr/lib -no-undefined -Wl,--no-undefined -Wl,--allow-shlib-undefined -L/usr/kde/3.5/lib -L/usr/qt/3/lib -L/usr/lib tag.lo catalog.lo -ldb -lkdecore -lqt-mt -lz -lpng -lz -lm -lXext -lX11 -lSM -lICE -lpthread .libs/catalog.o: In function `Catalog::addIndex(QCString const&)': catalog.cpp:(.text+0x603): undefined reference to `db_create' catalog.cpp:(.text+0x60f): undefined reference to `db_strerror' catalog.cpp:(.text+0x9ad): undefined reference to `db_strerror' catalog.cpp:(.text+0xa1b): undefined reference to `db_strerror' .libs/catalog.o: In function `Catalog::open(QString const&)': catalog.cpp:(.text+0xbce): undefined reference to `db_create' catalog.cpp:(.text+0xbda): undefined reference to `db_strerror' catalog.cpp:(.text+0xce6): undefined reference to `db_strerror' catalog.cpp:(.text+0xcf3): undefined reference to `db_strerror' .libs/catalog.o: In function `Catalog::query(QValueList<QPair<QCString, QVariant> > const&)': catalog.cpp:(.text+0x1906): undefined reference to `db_strerror' catalog.cpp:(.text+0x1a90): undefined reference to `db_strerror' .libs/catalog.o:catalog.cpp:(.text+0x1aa7): more undefined references to `db_strerror' follow collect2: ld returned 1 exit status distcc[13484] ERROR: compile (null) on localhost failed make[3]: *** [libkdevcatalog.la] Error 1 make[3]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/kdevelop-3.3.0/work/kdevelop-3.3.0/lib/catalog' make[2]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/kdevelop-3.3.0/work/kdevelop-3.3.0/lib' make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/kdevelop-3.3.0/work/kdevelop-3.3.0' make: *** [all] Error 2 !!!

Sorry, tracked it down to a db.h file in /usr/local/include that was causing the problem. :-(
