Looks like you're missing Berkeley/Sleepycat DBM or GDBM or ndbm. Either that, or some special incantation is needed to get it included. The ./configure script (at least the CVS tree) supports these flags: --with-ndbm=ARG use -lARG to link with ndbm --with-ndbmheader=ARG #include <ARG> to use ndbm Can you look in the config.log and see what it said about what DBM it found, and what flags were used? As a question to the list - AFAIK, slocal is the only thing in the entire nmh tree that needs DBM. I suspect I'm not alone in using nmh/exmh/etc to deal with mail, but using procmail instead of slocal. Should we modify things so if no DBM -devel environment is found, we simply warn and don't build slocal?
