you should have /usr/include/db_185.h
What package do I need to merge? The file /usr/include/db_185.h does not exist and is not recognised by qpkg -f either. qpkg -l -nc sys-libs/db gives (minus the /usr/share/doc stuff): sys-libs/db-4.1.25_p1-r4 CONTENTS: /usr /usr/include /usr/include/db4.1 /usr/include/db4.1/db.h /usr/include/db4.1/cxx_common.h /usr/include/db4.1/db_185.h /usr/include/db4.1/db_cxx.h /usr/include/db4.1/cxx_except.h /usr/lib /usr/lib/libdb_tcl-4.1.so /usr/lib/libdb_tcl-4.1.a /usr/lib/libdb_java-4.1.la /usr/lib/libdb_cxx-4.1.a /usr/lib/libdb-4.1.la /usr/lib/db-4.1.jar /usr/lib/libdb-4.1.a /usr/lib/libdb-4.1.so /usr/lib/libdb_cxx-4.1.so /usr/lib/libdb_java-4.1.a /usr/lib/libdb_java-4.1.so /usr/lib/libdb_tcl-4.1.la /usr/lib/libdb_cxx-4.1.la /usr/bin /usr/bin/db4.1_archive /usr/bin/db4.1_dump /usr/bin/db4.1_upgrade /usr/bin/db4.1_printlog /usr/bin/db4.1_verify /usr/bin/db4.1_deadlock /usr/bin/db4.1_load /usr/bin/db4.1_checkpoint /usr/bin/db4.1_stat /usr/bin/db4.1_recover /usr/sbin /usr/sbin/berkeley_db41_svc sys-libs/db-1.85-r1 CONTENTS: /usr /usr/lib /usr/lib/libdb1.a /usr/lib/libdb1.so.2 /usr/lib/libdb1.so -> libdb1.so.2 1102242093 /usr/lib/libdb.so.2 -> libdb1.so.2 1102242093 /usr/lib/libndbm.so -> libdb1.so.2 1102242093 /usr/lib/libndbm.a -> libdb1.a 1102242093 /usr/include /usr/include/db1 /usr/include/db1/db.h /usr/include/db1/mpool.h /usr/include/db1/ndbm.h /usr/include/ndbm.h -> db1/ndbm.h 1102242094 /usr/bin /usr/bin/db1_dump185
Ok, some way your install got corrupted. /usr/include/db_185.h should be a symbolic link to /usr/include/db*/db_185.h, where the star is the highest version available on the system. The best thing to do would be to do a remerge of any of the db 4 packages installed. This should reset things to a proper state.
That did it, thanks a lot.
