Where oh where has my Berkeley DB gone? (Issue 544)
Any configure hackers out there want to take a crack at this? I've
verified that it's not just me having this problem. Filed as issue #544
Scenario:
- Download Berkeley DB 3.3.11, untar and move it to subversion/db
- cd db/build_unix
- run ../dist/configure && make && make install
- cd back into the subversion build root
- run the following:
./configure --enable-maintainer-mode --disable-shared \
--with-berkeley-db=/usr/local/BerkeleyDB.3.3
configure then gives me this line:
checking for Berkeley DB in /usr/local/BerkeleyDB.3.3... no
I *know* it's there, so I check:
pantheon:~$ ls /usr/local/BerkeleyDB.3.3
bin docs include lib
It turns out that the workaround for this is to not use the
--with-berkeley-db option at all:
./configure --enable-maintainer-mode --disable-shared
works OK. So I'm guessing that right now you can only build with
Berkeley DB if you've got it in your subversion source directory

I've been building on FreeBSD for ages, and I've had the same problem
as Fitz for quite a while. I've been building DB "inline" for eons
just to avoid the problem.
But yes, in your /etc/rc.conf, you can override the variable
${ldconfig_paths} that is normally set in /etc/defaults/rc.conf:
ldconfig_paths="${ldconfig_paths} /usr/local/BerkeleyDB.3.3.11/lib"
This is what we did on our FreeBSD test box. Dunno how Darwin works
though. :-)

Watch out if you use the --config-cache switch. We cache where we find (or
don't find) DB. So if you have a cache that says it doesn't exist somewhere,
then you install it, then rerun config -- it won't find it. Gotta wipe the
cache, or just not use it.

If you're going to install it separately, then I don't think you should
locate the thing in the db/ subdirectory.

This latter issue is what got me when I set up my new box at work. I had
forgotten to add it to ld.so.conf and run ldconfig first. When configure
tried to link against the library to check its version... blam! No workie.
So configure assumed the library wasn't there after all.

So are there errors in config.log relating to the tests for Berkeley?
One guess: do you need to add /usr/local/BerkeleyDB.3.3/lib to your
library search path (LD_LIBRARY_PATH or /etc/ld.so.conf)?

I installed the Berkeley DB in a non-standard location as I don't have root
permission and had to set CCPFLAGS and LDFLAGS to point to the install
directory. After that configure found it OK with the --with-berkeley-db=
option set. (But then again, it may have run OK without it.)
