I have gdbm installed from the ports collection:
rhap:~/apps/maildrop-0.65{18} $ ls -l /usr/local/lib/ | grep gdb
-rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 48898 Jul 26 14:06 libgdbm.a
lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 12 Jul 26 14:06 libgdbm.so@ -> libgdbm.so.2
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 25353 Jul 26 14:06 libgdbm.so.2*
But when I run configure (for maildrop .65) it can't find it:
rhap:~/apps/maildrop-0.65{19} $ ./configure --with-gdbm

configure: error: GDBM library not found
Furthermore, the maildrop package can't find plain ol' db libs either:
rhap:~/apps/maildrop-0.65/bdbobj{22} $ make
*** Did not find db library. If libdb is in a nonstandard
*** directory, rerun configure.
*** Error code 1
Stop.
rhap:~/apps/maildrop-0.65/bdbobj{23} # ls -l /usr/local/lib | grep libdb
-r--r--r-- 1 root man 450120 Jul 26 13:45 libdb2.a
I tried creating a symlink for libdb.a to point to libdb2.a, but it
didn't help.
What am I missing?
Thanks,
jon
