RE: configure: error: Berkeley DB version mismatch

["Tay, Gary" <Gary_Tay@platts.com>]

It is good practice running "make distclean; make clean" b4 re-running
"configure", this clears some cache info (config.cache?)

Pls try to see if it makes any difference.

Thanks. I've figured the linux problem, you are right, it pointed to an 
old db.h

on slackware 10 , /usr/include/db.h symlinks to /usr/include/db3/db.h . 
there is also a /usr/include/db4/db.h , so I just changed the symlink 
and all worked fine.


I still cant work out the solaris prob..

Thanks!
