no, that is not a good idea. with berkeleydb, we do NOT want a generic db.h. We actually tried this last year or something, to track along with "latest version". It failed miserably, and we had to back it out, with much pain. For some troublesome software, you have to use a specific version, and know exactly which version you are using, to compile something else. Berkeleydb is the pinnacle of such badly written software, unfortunately. _______________________________________________ maintainers mailing list [email protected] https://lists.opencsw.org/mailman/listinfo/maintainers .:: This mailing list's archive is public. ::.
