Problem with bdb

[Andreas Schwarz]

I have compiled bdb on Debian Woody, but when I try to use it I get the
message:

ruby: relocation error: /usr/local/lib/site_ruby/1.8/i386-linux/bdb.so:
undefined symbol: db_version

Any hints?

Thanks
Andreas

A> ruby: relocation error: /usr/local/lib/site_ruby/1.8/i386-linux/bdb.so:
A> undefined symbol: db_version

What is the output given by extconf.rb ?

how it's defined db_version in db.h

pigeon% grep db_version /usr/include/db.h
#define db_version db_version_4000
char *db_version __P((int *, int *, int *));
pigeon%


and the result of `nm' ?

pigeon% nm bdb.so | grep ' db'
U db_create_4000
U db_env_create_4000
U db_env_set_func_sleep_4000
U db_env_set_func_yield_4000
U db_strerror_4000
U db_version_4000

This is db.h for Berkeley DB 2.x

Install the package libdb4.1-dev
