When the berkdb use flag was disabled for dev-lang/python-2.6.6-r1 on my arch the spambayes application stopped working. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install spambayes-1.1_alpha6-r1. 2. Run /usr/bin/sb_mboxtrain.py. 3. Notice an error indicating that the spambayes couldn't opened the database. Actual Results: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/sb_mboxtrain.py", line 349, in <module> main() File "/usr/bin/sb_mboxtrain.py", line 328, in main h = hammie.open(pck, usedb, "c") File "/usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/spambayes/hammie.py", line 272, in open return Hammie(storage.open_storage(filename, useDB, mode), mode) File "/usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/spambayes/storage.py", line 998, in open_storage return klass(data_source_name, mode) File "/usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/spambayes/storage.py", line 154, in __init__ self.load() File "/usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/spambayes/storage.py", line 180, in load self.dbm = dbmstorage.open(self.db_name, self.mode) File "/usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/spambayes/dbmstorage.py", line 70, in open return f(db_name, mode) File "/usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/spambayes/dbmstorage.py", line 40, in open_best return f(*args) File "/usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/spambayes/dbmstorage.py", line 20, in open_dbhash return bsddb.hashopen(*args) AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'hashopen' not updating ~/.hammiedb Expected Results: The correct bsddb database object is created, the spambayes database file is opened, and the sb_mboxtrain.py script runs without error. Adding dev-python/bsddb3 to RDEPEND for spambayes solves the problem.
Fixed.
