where can I find libdb.sl?

Hi,

I installed an HP-UX 11.11 (September 2005) Enterprise edition.
I now want to load some opensource software (which I download from http://hpux.connect.org.uk/). However, some packages seem to complain that they cannot find a library called 'libdb.sl'.
I did a 'find / -name *libdb*' and indeed, the library is not on the system.

Can somebody tell me where I can find this library for HP-UX11.11 (PA-RISC)?

With kind regards,

KRis

Kris,
are you sure you have installed all the required modules for your software successfully?
Normally all required libs would be part of the package. What are you trying to install?

Let your effort be such, the very words to define it, by a layman - would sound like a "POETRY" ;)

Hello m

Yes, You need to install Berkeley DB for this library. You can download from,

http://hpux.connect.org.uk/hppd/hpux/Development/Tools/db-4.3.29/

Re: where can I find libdb.sl?

Hello,

Something to add, When you download any Software from http://hpux.connect.org.uk/, you may also need to download Run time dependencies as well for that partivular software.

Say for example, if you have downloaded "ethereal", you have to download

Run-time dependencies: atk bison db expat flex fontconfig freetype libgcc gettext glib glib2 gtk+ heimdal libXft libXrender libiconv libpcap m4 openssl pango pcre readline zlib

Since Ethereal is compiled dynamically, it requires other shared libraries to be present before your application starts.

Re: where can I find libdb.sl?

Hi,

libdld.sl is usually in /usr/lib, and carried on the system by HPUXBase64.OS-Core.CORE-SHLIBS.

Don't you have CORE-SHLIBS installed?
=> swlist HPUXBase64.OS-Core.CORE-SHLIBS

Maybe can you try to install ld cumulative patch http://www4.itrc.hp.com/service/patch/patchDetail.do?BC=patch.breadcrumb.main|patch.breadcrumb.search|&patchid=PHSS_33033

sorry, ignore my previous answer (mistake libdb / libdld).
