OK, I see many people are having troubles with this. So, the following
is a safe way to compile Evolution from CVS:
* Get the Sleepycat tarball from:
http://www.sleepycat.com/update/3.1.17/db-3.1.17.tar.gz
* Compile according to instructions, but installing into some custom
prefix, e.g:
../dist/configure --prefix=/opt/berkeleydb-3.1.17
* Autogen Evolution specifying that it has to look for the DB
library there, eg.:
./autogen.sh --prefix=/opt/gnome
--with-db3-includes=/opt/berkeleydb-3.1.17/include
--with-db3-libs=/opt/berkeleydb-3.1.17/lib
Notice that this method also works if you have a different version of
Berkeley DB installed already, and doesn't mess up your existing
packages or your distribution.
I strongly suggest doing this until we figure out a way to make the
libdb situation less painful for users.
I hope this helps,
