Nope, i checked, there is only ONE DB_File on my system and it is excatly the same which i have installed from CPAN. > This is really more of a > perl module-compiling problem than a FreeBSD one. Oh, i see. What bothers me is that this perl mode-compling problem happens only on RedHat and on FreeBSD. Here is what i got from developers: # Impractical. # # Several important libc functions depend on having databases # available. Something which exports an ndbm-compatible interface is # required by SUSv3/POSIX.1-200x.
