I think that the DB formats are not binary compatible between different
architectures, but maybe a dumped version of the german root2word and
word2root DBs will help you.
I have dumped my databases (it took several weeks of rendering for those)
using db_dump from the Berkeley DB distribution, they are avaliable at
http://leo.wu-wien.ac.at/htdig/
(or http://strike.wu-wien.ac.at/~leo/htdig/)
the dumped files are gzipped, you should be able to create the databases
with
gzip -cd root2word.dump.gz | db_load root2word.db
gzip -cd word2root.dump.gz | db_load word2root.db
I tried that and the resulting database was smaller than the original.
I dumped the result again and the two dumps are identical.
Could someone try if the DBs are OK?
Cheers,
Leo
