I had this problem when trying to install the rpm binary on my RedHat 7.1 system. Downloading the source rpm and building a binary package with:

rpm --rebuild mixmagic-0.1.7-1.src.rpm

built a package that uses my existing libdb2.so file.

I had the same problem (but I have got libdb.so.2 ... as you porbably do too)

I tried to compile the sources, I had :
In file included from ../../../mixer.h:25,
                 from alsa.c:22:
../../../block.h:24:18: tree.h: Aucun fichier ou rpertoire de ce type
../../../block.h:25:20: parser.h: Aucun fichier ou rpertoire de ce type.

I tried to do rpm --rebuild mixmagic-0.1.7-1.src.rpm ,  but i does the same.

I now write all the end of make messages :

Hi!

But there is unfortunatelly still no activity in development (the last cvs commit must be 7 month old) , and I'm not sure if it will be continued :(

So I would suggest to take a look at protux.sourceforge.net in the meantime, because I think a new star is born ;)

I got the scr.rpm to compile by doing two things:

1. Soft link to the next closest version of that "missing" lib
# ln -s /usr/lib/libdb2.so.3 /usr/lib/libdb2.so
...or whatever yours is

2. Grab and install the devel stuff for db1
--on my Mandrake 8.2 box, this was just:
# urpmi db1-devel
# /sbin/ldconfig

You can also just install it directly from the CD's (I'm sure Redhat et al have this too), or nab it off the web.

Then, of course, just:
# rpm --rebuild mixmag*src.rpm
# rpm -Uvh /usr/src/RPM/RPMS/i586.mixmag*
...or wherever is writes the new rpm is your distro
