Hi
When i install subversion i have to modify the Makefile to get the swig-py
bindings to work, because they get linked to BDB 3.3 and(!?) 4.1.
There are 2 subversion machines i have, both are running RedHat Linux 7.3
and i run following commands on install:
$ sh ./autogen.sh
$ ./configure --with-berkeley-db=/usr/local/BerkeleyDB.4.1 --with-ssl
$ make clean
$ make
# make install
$ make swig-py
# make install-swig-py
All commands succeed without errors. After installing Subversion it works
w/o problems, but the python bindings don't. When i try to use them, e.g.
with viewcvs they raise an error "RuntimeError: bad database version: got
3.3.11, should be at least 4.0.14". What i need to do is change the -ldb
flags to -ldb-4 where they appear in the Makefile, then the bindings work.
./configure seems to check for -ldb4 and -ldb but not -ldb-4 maybe that's
the problem?
IMO the naming scheme of the BDB libs suck anyway because version 1 and 2
are named libdb1, libdb2 but version 3 and up seem to be named like
libdb-3.x with a symlink to libdb-3 and libdb. At least that's what i found
on my machine.
What i'd like to know is:
Is there anybody on the list having the same problem?
Would it be okay for you to check for db-4 too in ./configure?
Basically that is no real problem for me, but i'm too lazy to edit the
Makefile on every update ;) and i wanted to report it so that others with
the same problem may find that post helpful.
Yours
Mike
p.s.: here's the ldd output of one of the python modules before and after
the -ldb-4 change, interestingly both are linked against BDB 4.1 but only
the second works because it's not linked against BDB 3:
