Yes, I was experimenting. A CPAN module required a higher version of the
Berkely db, so I installed db4-4.0.14-14.i386.rpm from RH. When that led
nowhere, I uninstalled it. I'm guessing this is what caused the
problems.

I'm running RH 7.1. I have found a solution that appears to work. In
/usr/lib I created a symbolic link called libdb.so.2 that points to
libdb2.so.3 in the same directly.
