./configure problem for libsf library due to apparently missing libdb library.
Hello,

./configure script fails to configure libsf. Please check the following last few lines of configure script error.

Code:
checking for db1/db.h... no
checking for db.h... yes
checking for dbopen in -ldb1... no
configure: error: No libdb?  No libsf.

But find command shows the following;

Code:
/usr/lib/libdb-4.2.so
/usr/lib/libdb-4.a
/usr/lib/libdb-4.2.la
/usr/lib/libdb-4.4.la
/usr/lib/libdb-4.so
/usr/lib/libdb.a
/usr/lib/libdb.so
/usr/lib/libdb-4.4.so
/usr/lib/libdb-4.4.a
/lib/libdb-4.2.so
/lib/libdb-3.3.so
/lib/libdb-3.1.so
/lib/libdb-4.4.so

It seems the file libdb does exist. man dbopen displays man page
for dbopen. I also tried to ln -s /usr/lib/libdb.a and libdb.so /lib dir but all were in vain.

Please help. Thank you.
