Re: [open-cobol-list] build problems

[Sergey Kashyrin]

I think it's not the issue of the header, but in 1.1 (CE or whatever) configure:

        for MYOCLIBS in db db-4.5 db-4.4 db-4.3 db-4.2 db-4.1

...
So it is not checking for shared library located anywhere else, and if there is no symlink reference from /usr/lib or like that, configure can't build the test

Check validity of the include file by doing in a terminal ls -la /usr/include/db.h
If you get this :

--------------------------
address@hidden ACAS]$ ls -la /usr/include/db.h
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 9 Dec 20 23:16 /usr/include/db.h -> db53/db.h

--------------------------

Then you have the correct package installed.
If not then yep, you have not so check what is available 

Note that it points to the db53 directory and that is important as other packages can include the db.h file in /use/include which is not enough.

HOWEVER your listing does seem to indicate that you do have the right package installed but I use mageia v3 and the package names are not the same.

Hi,

I'm trying to build opencobol 1.1 on my Fedora 19 x86_64 system and I'm having trouble.

Here's what I'm getting:

checking for ncurses.h... yes
checking for BDB db.h version >= 4.1 ... yes (5.3)
checking for BDB 4.1 compatibility in db ... no
configure: error: Include file db.h implies version >=4.1 but no library found

As far as I can tell I have libdb-devel-5.3.21-11.fc19.x86_64 that appears to "own" /usr/include/db.h which contains this string "     50 #define DB_VERSION_STRING       "Berkeley DB 5.3.21: (May 11, 2012)" "

Could someone help me with this please?

Regards,
