I am attemting to install courier-imap for use with qmail (on Red Hat 8.0). However, I 
am encountering an error message related to gdbm when running "make check":

I have installed gdbm om /usr/local/lib and I ran ./configure make and make check as 
an ordinary user (not as root). I have also checked that gdbm is indeed installed in 
/usr/local/lib; running ls /usr/local/lib gives the following output:

What am I doing wrong?
