I have uploaded dbxml_2.5.16-3 to mentors.debian.net: http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/d/dbxml/ This version builds agains Berkeley DB 5.1. I have also converted the package to a multi-arch package. Kind regards, Daniël de Kok -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
