Ok, I think I've figured it out. After rooting around in the source code a bit and comparing with various db.h versions, it seems to me that SquidGuard can't deal with db-4.1. Unfortunately, db-4.1 and db-4.0 both want to redirect softlinks to db.h and relevant libraries, but are incompatible. So, I had to umerge db-4.1, re-emerge db-4.0 to re-establish the links, emerge squidguard (successfully, this time), then re-emerge db-4.1. This is all ok, but I'm now concerned that any time squidguard gets updated and I do a "emerge -u world" it'll break again, requiring me to go through the above process. That seems kind of lame. I'll enter a bug for this. Eric -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
