There are many other packages that depend on it:

[root at mail log]# rpm -qa | grep db4
db4-utils-4.0.14-20
db4-4.0.14-20
db4-devel-4.1.25-4
gpg-pubkey-db42a60e-37ea5438
db4-4.1.25-4
[root at mail log]# rpm -e db4-4.0.14-20

Oh, it's a link, of course, silly me...

[root at mail log]# ls -l /usr/lib/libdb.so
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root           22 Apr 10 18:15 /usr/lib/libdb.so
-> ../../lib/libdb-4.1.so

I've only got one libdb.so:

[root at mail log]# updatedb
[root at mail log]# locate libdb.so
/usr/lib/libdb.so
[root at mail log]# find / -name "libdb.so"
/usr/lib/libdb.so

>but it could be that configure wasn't able to link against your
libdb-4.1.so file.

The maillog says that "incorrect version of Berkeley db: compiled against
4.0.14, linked against 4.1.25". If I understand correctly, it properly
linked against the libdb-4.1.so file... I think what I want to do is
rebuild the rpm's, and get them to compile against 4.1.25. Is there a way
to do that?

Thanks again Ed!
