[Description Andreas Neumeier 2004-06-08 23:53:24 UTC]

When I try to emerge dev-perl/DB_File-1.808, it stops with following messages:

---

I can't dup this in 5.8.2. Anyone out there running 5.8.4 that can confirm this bug?

[Comment 2 Sergiy Borodych 2004-06-14 05:43:57 UTC]

For me all ok

PERL_DL_NONLAZY=1 /usr/bin/perl "-MExtUtils::Command::MM" "-e" "test_harness(0, 'blib/lib', 'blib/arch')" t/*.t
t/db-btree....ok
t/db-hash.....ok
t/db-recno....ok
All tests successful.

I can confirm this bug.

[Comment 4 Bernhard Bock 2004-06-23 01:40:26 UTC]

I found it.

In /usr/include, my symlinks pointed to db4/db.h, although I have db4.1 installed. Deleting the symlinks db.h and db_185.h and creating them new with the right destination makes the ebuild succeed.

[Comment 5 Tom Martin (RETIRED) 2004-08-06 09:26:33 UTC]

I can confirm that this fix works.

Does this come down to the sys-libs/db people?

[Comment 6 Michael Cummings (RETIRED) 2004-09-21 13:06:36 UTC]

Paul,
 SOrry to add you to this, but do you still look out for db4 issues? Cleaning up bugs and saw the last comment point about the symlink. Any ideas? Or is this now resolved/fixed? Thanks!

[Comment 7 Paul de Vrieze (RETIRED) 2004-09-22 02:11:05 UTC]

This should be resolved. There were some minor issues with the script that maintains those links. The script should be fixed though for quite some time.
