exim and libdb.so.3

2000-10-01 Thread lbredeso
When I try to load exim, it says:

exim:  error while loading share libraries:  libdb.so.3:  cannot open
shared object file:  No such file or directory

If I type "locate libdb.so.3" it says that "/gnu/lib/libdb.so.3" and
"/usr/lib/libdb.so.3" exist, but when I check myself, they actually
don't.  I upgraded libdb to libdb2.  Does anyone know how to fix this?
 Shouldn't exim want libdb2.so.2 instead of libdb.so.3?  I have the
newest version of exim.

Don't know about exim, but if locate thinks it's there, it probably was
until recently. locate maintains a database that gets updated from cron
(or anacron?). You can update it yourself with "upatedb". So, your
libdb.so.3 disappeared probably recently, maybe you know what you've
done last?

The last time that everything functioned normally was before I 
did "dist-upgrade".  Anything involving "libdb.so.3" doesn't work.  
Perl won't work, Exim won't work, and Apache won't work.  I upgraded 
to the newest version of libdb2 while I still could use apt-get.  
This didn't really fix anything.  Any ideas would be helpful.  :)

Download the latest libc6 .deb from woody, and install it with:

dpkg -i libc6_2.1.94-3.deb
