Hi,

It would seem we're no longer shipping libdb-4.1.so, whereas we do have
4.2, 4.3, and 4.5 in that db4 compatibility package. I wound up just
stealing the binary from an older RPM and copying it in place.

Anyway, software like Xilinx's ISE/EDK would like it back :)

Jon.
Jindrich Novy, can you package it for us, please ?
Xilinx ISE/EDK is also an important tool for me :)

not a problem. I needed to change the compat-db structure anyway to be
easily extendable for older BDBs. Actually the current rawhide
compat-db is just a dummy package containing only Requires to
compat-db45 and compat-db46. It doesn't seem to be too hard to add
compat-db41, 42 and 43 subpackages. But I will let the main compat-db
be dependent on the 4.5 and 4.6 BDBs only, so that the older
compat-dbs would need to be installed/required separately.
Would it be possible to also have a compat-db-devel package that includes the db.h from the older releases? Or does this sort of defeat the purpose of "compat"?
HTH,
Jindrich
