I should point out that I'm still building against libdb4.2 because I don't know what effect upgrading to libdb4.6 would have on packages like subversion. Specifically, I don't know if this would require repository dumps and reloads if the repository uses bdb. Also, the ldap, PostgreSQL, and SQLite3 dependencies are for included loadable modules; they are not required for the main library. Should I include those as dependencies or let other packages that actually use the modules declare them? -- David Rothenberger ---- daveroth@acm.org Talkers are no good doers. -- William Shakespeare, "Henry VI"
