I could reproduce this in an up-to-date sid amd64 chroot, and the failure is: checking for main in -lpthread... yes checking for main in -ldb-4.6... no checking for main in -ldb-4.0... no checking for main in -ldb-3.3... no checking for main in -ldb-3.2... no checking for main in -ldb-3.1... no configure: error: Cannot find the Berkeley DB libs On Thu, 03 Dec 2009 at 16:47:24 +0100, Sebastian Muszynski wrote: > i've rebuild the package on amd64 without problems. You must have had an older version of libdb-dev installed... the current version of libdb-dev is 4.8, which is not on the limited list of versions that kpsk looks for. The relevant version when dealing with FTBFS bugs is always the latest from unstable. I do wonder whether this package should still be in Debian: it has a low and declining popularity-contest score, and hasn't had an upstream release since a release candidate in 2007. If you still want to maintain it, go ahead, but be aware that maintaining it properly probably means taking over upstream maintenance... Or, if you don't think it's worth maintaining any more, http://wiki.debian.org/ftpmaster_Removals explains how to request removal. Simon
