Re: [cobalt-users] Installing libraries: libJudy.so and libdb-3.3.so

Sorry to keep responding to my own post, but I'm still chipping away at 
this on my own and the problems keep changing.

Per Gerald's suggestion, there is also now

/lib/libJudy.so (linked to /opt/Judy/usr/lib/LibJudy.so)

Still an issue - that is, I'm still getting the same failed dependencies 
on the bogofilter RPM - but see below for expansion.

I gave up on RPMs for this one. Instead I found a source tarball of the 
(no longer current) 3.3.11 version of Berkeley DB at <http://www.sleepycat.
com/> and was able to successfully build that. This installs files into 
/usr/local/BerkeleyDB.3.3/lib/; I made symbolic links as follows:

/usr/lib/libdb-3.so (links to /usr/local/BerkeleyDB.3.3/lib/libdb-3.so)
/usr/lib/libdb-3.3.so (links to /usr/local/BerkeleyDB.3.3/lib/libdb-3.3.so)
/lib/libdb-3.so (links to /usr/local/BerkeleyDB.3.3/lib/libdb-3.so)
/lib/libdb-3.3.so (links to /usr/local/BerkeleyDB.3.3/lib/libdb-3.3.so)
/lib/libdb.so (links to /usr/local/BerkeleyDB.3.3/lib/libdb.so)

However, the RPM STILL fails those two dependencies.

I know I'm right and it's wrong. :-) How do I prove it?
