If you would like to install db-3.2.9-r6 and attempt to install bogofilter again, that would be great. If not I will at least need to see your config.log to see where the failure might be. The config.log should be in /var/tmp/portage/bogofilter-(version)/work/bogofilter-(version)/config.log Add it as an attachment to this bug.

sorry for the double post, I had an error from Bugzilla BTW, I've emerged db -r6 and it still does not work. Cheers
make sure /usr/lib/libdb.so exists qpkg -f /usr/lib/libdb.so -fomit-frame-pointer also may be causing trouble, try removing that from your CFLAGS

There appears to be a version mismatch between your headers and your libraries. Make sure that /usr/include/db.h exists, and that it contains these lines: #define DB_VERSION_MAJOR 3 #define DB_VERSION_MINOR 2 #define DB_VERSION_PATCH 9
Looks like it is dying because of the threads library and not because of DB. My glibc wasn't compiled with threads (lack of a USE flag!), I am recompiling it.
glibc allways compiles in the pthread library. The thread library does not exist in linux. Also if you look at your log you can see that where it tries to link with -ldb-3.2 -lpthread it compiles, but then the program exited with a nonzero result.
about /usr/include/db.h: it exists and has the correct VERSION defines. But I am receiving major 3, minor 2 when calling db_version, while DB_VERSION_MINOR is 1. I will try to discover from where it is getting that MINOR 1. I will attach the test program. about threads: yes, I was wrong, I read it wrong from conf.log.
Created attachment 14867 [details] test program (modified from config.log) compiled with gcc -lpthread -ldb
I wasn't able to find the place from where it is getting the wrong MINOR, but it compiled in another box. I'll use the binary until I discover what is the problem (probably something with my box, some bad old update)
Works for me and many other people. Glad to hear it's an isolated incident. Post here if you find the solution to your problem.
