I think (haven't rebuild rpm for some time), that db4 is not linked against, but has been embedded into rpm's sources. Try ldd on /bin/rpm, you'll find it depending on librpmdb-4.2.so, and not libdb-4.*.so It was said that latest rpm bits (4.2, 4.1.1 and 4.0.5) had O_DIRECT disabled in their db4 code. But someone reported this failure on an rpm 4.2 system, so I am puzzled again ... :( I guess I need to rebuild rpm for RH9/8.0/7.3, maybe go straight to 4.2.1. -- Axel.Thimm@physik.fu-berlin.de
