Hi there, I'm trying to compile a copy of 5.004_04 for sparc/slink. The catalyst for this is that I discovered that our current 5.004 doesn't have GDBM_file support compiled in.
I succeeded eventually in compiling it (the hitch was an already open bug, that 5.004 doesn't compile with libc2.1-pre versions), but I've hit another snag: I also need the DB_File extension to work. Unfortunately, Perl won't build the DB_File extension against Berkeley DB version 2, only Berkeley DB version 1 - and AFAICS, we don't have a libc6 dev-package of Berkeley DB version 1. This is a slight mystery, since I don't see how the version currently *in* slink got compiled, since that does have db support.. Any thoughts?
