undefined symbol dbopen for BerkeleyDB.4.7

[Violeta Gotcheva <vg...@lle.rochester.edu>]

  I have to compile apr-util with support for BerkeleyDB on Solaris 10
(sparc). Unfortunately, apr-util configure script fails with the
error "undefined symbol dbopen" . I checked the symbols in libdb and
dbopen is not defined but there is db_open. What am I missing?
  
These are the software versions that I am using:
  apr-util-1.3.4
  apr-1.3.3
  db-4.7.25

Looks like your apr-util is compiled against one db version,
but is trying to load runtime libraries from another.
dbopen() comes from Berkeley DB 1.x, which is likely to be
installed for the benefit of things like sendmail.

Is that what ldd tells you?  If you have BDB 1.x installed,
adjust your library path to load it first.
