Bug Description
I have been trying to build rpm5 for opensuse, and I just end up with this error:
http://
Current spec file is here:
http://
I made a libdb-5_1 package because the libdb-4_8 package was not working.
If you would like to see the spec file, just ask me.
To post a comment you must log in.
The tarball (and rpm-5.3.10) expect to db51/db. h
find /usr/include/
This MUST be present (though there is no
reason whatsoever taht you cannot patch
out the 2 occurences of db51 to use any
recent version of Berkeley DB).
Verify when configuring (its in config.log in
your build tree) that Berekely DB was found.
You can also check config.h after running ./configure
(and you MUST add quite a few parameters, do not
expect rpm to Just Build with default options).
There are many examples of Known Good build options
in devtool.conf in the tarball. SuSE is there too.
