hi -

I don't quite have a nice 'cookie cutter' solution for you... since I sorted 
some similar errors related to 'dbopen' when I was compiling vanilla GNOME 
1.4 from source a while back (also on Slackware 7.1)

FWIW - you'll want to grab some recent Berkeley DB source (was at 3.2 when I 
did this back in July... judging from a look at my system) and do some minor 
surgery with your existing libdb* libraries.

Sorry I don't recall my exact reasoning as I was working through this... but 
here are some listings to give you some ideas ;-)  (The Jul 18 files seem to 
be the most recent)  Pay attention to options about building shared libraries 
and db-1.85 compat (IIRC) - might make more sense looking at your own 
system... but this *is* on a Slackware 7.1 install ~ 1 year old, and I just 
compiled koffice 1.1 and changed my compiler to gcc-2.95.2 yesterday (was 
egcs-2.91.66.. but this fails due to known compiler issues... and I updated 
specifically to compile koffice 1.1)

I've also heard tips related to adjusting -ldb to -ldb2 in the koffice 
makefiles... but I opted to adjust the libdb* stuff for the long term...
