Subject: | hard to install via cpan tools because bdb 1.x library is being used |
I have run into the same problem as the majority of the cpantester
failures. The wrong db.h include file is being found and used. It is
common for systems to have both 1.x and 4.x versions of BDB installed,
where the 1.x version is installed in the standard location
(/usr/include) and the 4.x version is installed in a version specific
directory ({/{usr,opt}/include/db46).
Please make it easier for users to use cpan tools to install this module
without having to manually specify where to look using environment
variables. One possibility is to have a list of possible directories and
use Devel::CheckLib to find the right one.
