[Tiny-cobol-users] install problems

[donald t. <don...@sy...>]

I am trying to install tiny-cobol but am obviously missing a package.

I have installed the db1-1.85.4-8.i386.rpm, but am getting the following 
on the ./configure command,

[root@LizzyLinux tinycobol-0.63]# ./configure --with-libdb=3

I tried both with and without the --with-libdb=3 option.

Any pointers?

That looks like 1,85 so just run ./configure --with-libdb=1

Many distributions have BDB installed by default.

Check to see if you have BDB installed, and what version.
Newer distributions have migrated to BDB version 4x.

If so, you could try the 'configure --with-libdb=4' option.

Since you have installed BDB '1.85.4' the '--with-libdb=1' option will 
likely NOT work.
The version 0.63 configure was not designed with this in mind, so the 
script will fail.

If BDB is not installed, check your distribution packages.

If all else fails, download the BDB 1.85.4 sources and build and install 
those.

The above should work, but it depends on the locations and names of the
BDB header and library files.

Hope this helps,
