Seems that they no longer provide tarballs for this :-/

The source is located within the zip files you can download.  it also includes the makefiles for building it.

db4o-7.4.ebuild

This is the ebuild I have been working on, but I have failed to make this build because of problems with Cecil.FlowAnalysis.dll (it's not in the tree since it doesn't even have any released tarball, but I am unable to make it work with bundled one :-S)

Then, I ask for help here, if any of you have any idea about how to make this build, please go ahead 

Thanks a lot :-)

You can read fedora spec, that is the one I have tried to follow, for trying to find how to make this work

We should probably treeclean this as our version is too old and buggy and nobody is willing to maintain this
