Tab completion will only find executable files in your path. It won't show any libraries or headers. Check the libraries are in /usr/lib... [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/lib# ls libdb [tab tab] libdb-4.5.a libdb_cxx.so libdb_java-4.so libdb-4.5.la libdbh-4.5.so.4 libdb_java.so libdb-4.5.so libdbh-4.5.so.4.0.5 libdb.so libdb-4.so libdbh.a libdbus-1.a libdb.a libdbh.la libdbus-1.la libdb_cxx-4.5.a libdbh.so libdbus-1.so libdb_cxx-4.5.la libdb_java-4.5.a libdbus-1.so.3 libdb_cxx-4.5.so libdb_java-4.5_g.so libdbus-1.so.3.0.0 libdb_cxx-4.so libdb_java-4.5.la libdb_cxx.a libdb_java-4.5.so (I have extra libraries installed, created from the BLFS install, that you probably won't have so don't worry if you don't have all of these.) The bdb executables look to be in your path, so that should be O.K. Check that the headers are in /usr/include... [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/include# ls db[tab tab] db_185.h db.h dbh_functions.h dbus-1.0/ db_cxx.h dbh_config.h dbh.h If these aren't there - try rebuilding the Berkeley db package from a freshly unpacked archive.
