Compiling MySQL with --with-bdb the mysql daemon crashes at runtime, the crash occures in /lib/libdb.so, I thought it was a linking problem, so i tried to rename the berkeleydb library (libbdb instead of libdb), but the problem is not that. I removed the source installation and installed the binary one (as the documentation says), but I need to use RAID (mysql one not disk RAID) and binary distributions have not that feature. Now I don't remember which function crashes, but I guess it's gethostbyname() or similar. I experienced the problem on Slackware 7.x and on Stampede 0.89/0.90, I have not a RedHat to try on that, the problem doesn't exist on Sun Solaris. If you can reproduce the problem on Slackware gdb is enough to find the crash point. Thanks in advance (you did a great work).
