No, I couldn't get the package to install, so I installed from source.
I went to sleepycat.com and downloaded the source. I did the configure/make/make install thing.
Then I created the BerkeleyDB link in /usr/local to link to the BerkeleyDB.3.3 directory under there (it's required for DB_File).
After that, I went to search.cpan.org and downloaded the DB_File-1.808 module and installed it.

I had the same problem on my SuSe machine. Your Berkeley DB is too new. Try installing 3.3.11 instead - I was able to get that working with DB_File 1.808.

Hi Keith
Well, to my understanding the one that gets installed by install DB_File IS actually 1.808 ?
I issued a search using i /DB_File/ and the only one I found was 1.808
and an explicit install of that failed with the same error. Was that exactly what you did?
Thanks
Matt
Hi Keith
I finally did it, after searching a lot around I found that some users had similiar problems with other applications. The solution was to install db-devel 2.41.25-70 from the CD After that the install DB_File worked like a charm :)
Thanks for everybodys help
Matt
