Hi, Perl 5.8.8 on Slackware 10.2
As to the libdb's: (the default for Slack 10.2) appears to be onboard 3 different versions of libdb (Sleepycat) Ideas, suggestions to get it working? How to tell if it's a Perl or a C init thing? /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.8/i486-linux/auto/DB_File/DB_File.so does exist. Next, in order, (a) line # 5 from rss4, (b) the error perl returned, (c) onboard/installed Slack pkgs of libdb, and (d) libdb's (a) use DB_File; (b) [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ rss4 Can't load '/usr/lib/perl5/5.8.8/i486-linux/auto/DB_File/DB_File.so' for module DB_File: libdb-4.4.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory at /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.8/i486-linux/XSLoader.pm line 70. at /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.8/i486-linux/DB_File.pm line 251 Compilation failed in require at /home/al/bin/rss4 line 5.
