According to the build page on wiki, it said you need: - db4-devel - krb5-devel - libtermcap-devel - ncurses-devel All the packages are availabe on Ubuntu, except libtermcap-devel. So I installed termcap-compat. Your problem seems to be with db4. Unfortunately, I'm currently at work now, and here I have a Centos 4.1 for my build, and an older version of ubuntu for other works. My ubuntu machine is at home, which I can't check right now. I can't remember which version of db4 I have, I think I have both db4-2 and db4-3 installed. I'll give a list of the package versions I have, when I get home this evening. But it's early morning now, in Shanghai :) But I'm not well versed with that build environment though. Makefile and stuff have never been my cup of tea. csp -- Chen Shaopeng http://www.idsignet.com -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
