Hi Prentice,
in general you're right I wouldn't say something if he had a release in the lower 2.4s, but the version he is using is _two major_ releases behind. Probably when he fixed his original problem, its not too far away to think of the next problem due to a bug thats already fixed in a newer version. Thats the only point I was thinking of by saying that.
Bye.

Benjamin,
Telling someone to upgrade their software just because it's an older version is not an appropriate response. It looks like the configure script can't find the ldbm library, so even if he upgraded to teh latest version, if he doesn't correct his environment, he may still have the same error.
