 `-----

I am no expert at compiling things.  From what I gathered in the gdbm
manpage, gdbm_errno should be available in gdbm.h which resides in
/usr/include.  Explicitly passing --includedir=/usr/include and
--with-gdbm-include=/usr/include to ./configure did not alleviate the
problem.  I am stuck at this point.  Your help is greatly appreciated.

Best regards

Rolf Leggewie
