Oh, it doesn't work with 2.4(I tried this one) but with 2.4.1
seemingly.
In the setup.py from 2.4 there is a line with:
'db4': {'libs': ('db-4.2', 'db42', 'db-4.1', 'db41',
'db-4.0', 'db4',),
But in 2.4.1 the setup.py from pybsddb project has been merged:
for x in (0,1,2,3):
db_inc_paths.append('/usr/include/db4%d' % x)
