I'm
trying to build gnumeric on a:
---> uname -a
SunOS <hostname_not_applicable> 5.8 Generic_108528-16 sun4u sparc
SUNW,UltraSPARC-IIi-Engine
which doesn't have libdb installed on it already.
The gnome-libs library needs libdb-1.85 compatibility (which is needed by
gnumeric).
I went to
www.sleepycat.com and downloaded and
built their latest version of libdb, but (as shown below) it doesn't have
a 1.85 compatibility mode.
Can you point me to the best place to get a gnome-libs-compatible libdb?
(binary or source).
Below is my configure error message when building gnome-libs-1.0.62 :
.

.
checking for strdup... (cached) yes
checking for utime.h... yes

checking for dbopen... no
checking for dbopen in -ldb... no
checking for dbopen in -ldb1... no
configure: error: Your db library is missing db 1.85 compatibility mode
I could't find any build info for gnome-libs anywhere - that would be helpful
too.
I got the source from here -
http://ftp.acc.umu.se/pub/GNOME/sources/gnome-libs
as pointed to by the gnumeric download page (which says it can't support
gnome-libs 2.0 or higher).
Thanks,
