Hello,

 

When trying to install OpenLDAP 2.3.42 I got an error complaining about berkely DB 4.3. I Googled around and found out that OpenLDAP does not like version 4.4 so I downloaded and installed version Berkeley DB 4.5

 

I then tried to configure with ./configure --includedir=/usr/local/bdb4.5 (where I installed the new version).

 

Still, the configure script is going to fetch my old version. So I decided to rename the files of the old version in /usr/lib and link the same files to the ones in /usr/local/bdb4.5… somehow he still thinks I am using BDB 4.3 with the error:

checking for Berkeley DB major version... 4

checking for Berkeley DB minor version... 3

checking for Berkeley DB link (-ldb43)... no

checking for Berkeley DB link (-ldb-43)... no

checking for Berkeley DB link (-ldb-4.3)... no

checking for Berkeley DB link (-ldb-4-3)... no

checking for Berkeley DB link (-ldb-4)... no

checking for Berkeley DB link (-ldb4)... no

checking for Berkeley DB link (-ldb)... yes

checking for Berkeley DB version match... Berkeley DB version mismatch

        header: Sleepycat Software: Berkeley DB 4.3.29: (September 12, 2006)

        library: Berkeley DB 4.5.20: (September 20, 2006)

 

So my question… is there any way to force the location of Berkeley DB when running configure?

 

Thank you,

Nuno
