[Comment 1 Brandy Westcott (RETIRED) 2003-08-29 21:05:57 UTC]

The compile is failing in this block of code from bdbobj.c : 
 
			if ( (*obj->dbf->open)(obj->dbf, 
 
	#if DB_40 
 
	#else 
				       NULL, 
	#endif 
				       filename, NULL, 
				       dbtype, flags, 0664)) 
 
So if we are not using db-4.0 then an extra NULL argument is inserted into the funtion. 
But both db-3.2 and db-4.0 have the same function definition: 
 
	int  (*open) __P((DB *, 
		const char *, const char *, DBTYPE, u_int32_t, int)); 
 
In fact the DB_40 macro seems to be a check to see whether we are using db-4.1, 
since db-4.1 does require an extra argument in the funtion (*open): 
 
	int  (*open) __P((DB *, DB_TXN *, 
		const char *, const char *, DBTYPE, u_int32_t, int)); 
 
A more consistent check would be to use a macro DB_41: 
 
	#define DB_41 0 
 
	#if DB_VERSION_MAJOR == 4 
	#if DB_VERSION_MINOR == 1 
 
	#undef DB_41 
	#define DB_41 1 
 
	#endif 
	#endif 
 
		if (db_create(&obj->dbf, NULL, 0) == 0) 
		{ 
			if ( (*obj->dbf->open)(obj->dbf, 
 
	#if DB_41 
				       NULL, 
	#else 
 
	#endif 
				       filename, NULL, 
				       dbtype, flags, 0664))

courier-imap-2.1.1 db3 patch

This patch allows courier-imap-2.1.1 to successfully use db3.

[Comment 3 Robin Johnson 2003-09-03 02:51:07 UTC]

thanks brandy. the patch works and added it into the ebuild.
I'll see about passing it on upstream as it belongs there.

[Comment 4 Robin Johnson 2003-09-03 02:51:36 UTC]

note to self: pass patch upstream.

[Comment 5 Robin Johnson 2003-09-25 18:48:52 UTC]

patch sent upstream to [e-mail]
