I have understood the configure script made by "autoconf" with the m4 macros. I found that try to find the db-4.0 routine in aclocal.m4 (<- srcdir/config/sasldb.m4). ;; I write about sasl one as follow, but almost same cyrus-imapd I think. My case, the routine could not found the db-4.0 from $with_bdb_lib (--with-bdb-libdr) in AC_CHECK_LIB(). Now I know that this function is inside of "autoconf". ;; I found the reference of functions in the document attached with ;; autoconf package. for dbname in db-4.0 db4.0 db-4 ... do AC_CHECK_LIB($dbname, db_create, SASLBDB_LIB="$BDB_LIBADD -l$dbname"; dblib="berkeley"; break, dblib="no") done This function check into the "variable($dbname)" library about could found the "function(db_create)", and following commands-list-if-found, commands-list-ifno-found. I wandered why this routine could not match my db-4.0 in /usr/local/BerkeleyDB.4.0/lib/libdb-4.0.a. I tryed to find "db_create" function in my libdb-4.0.a with emacs hexl-mode, then I found a few about "db_create_4000" Then I edited aclocal.m4 at the "db_create" to "db_create_4000" and save, rm configure, run autoconf for remake the configure script. I retry to configure cyrus-sasl-2.1.1; ./configure --with-dblib=berkeley \ --with-bdb-libdir=/usr/local/BerkeleyDB.4.0/lib ... then configure script (AC_CHECK_LIB) found db-4.0. ;; but there is other problem yet..
