Yes. The problem lies in the fact that you cannot compile static and
shared libraries at the same time, with db3 (it's in the documentation
that way, and my experience has proven the documentation correct. Hmph.
go figure...). Anyhow, you need to compile/install the --enable-static
db3, and then compile/install the --enable-shared db3. Then, you need
to create a symlink libdb3.so ---> libdb-3.1.so.
It would have been much simpler had Evolution just used the shared
libdb-3 libraries. I played with it all day today, and finally figured
out what needed to be done to get Evolution to compile. It was really
frustrating, but persistence paid off. Also, remember that you need to
do a "db_dump185 addressbook.db | db_load addressbooknew.db" and
copy/backup as appropriate.
I've attached the spec file I used to compile db-3. Please read it and
make sure it won't cause conflicts with other db libraries on your
system. It works for me, but no guarantees/warranties. Also get the
db-3 tarball from sleepycat. DO NOT USE THE TARBALL FROM THE REDHAT-7.1
SRPM!!!! It's md5sum is different from sleepycat's, and I found a few
compile-time errors that are not in sleepycat's. Not sure what RH is
trying to pull on us....
Pull out the --enable-java and/or --enable-tcl options if you don't have
java or tcl installed, before building. Also, adjust the DB185INC stuff
in the spec file as appropriate.
This is just an offering in hopes it may help someone--it's not official
or anything like that. As I said before, it works for me. YMMV.
Good luck,
ciao.
