compilation on redhat 7.3 db3 libraries

[Patrice DUMAS - DOCT]

Hi,

I had some problems with cfengine compiled on redhat 7.3. It doesn't annoy me, 
but I think it could be fixed. cfengine-2.0.2. (I wanted to have a statically 
linked cfengine on a floppy... I dont think this is gonna fit !).

1) ./configure didn't found the location of the libraries db3. 

checking for BerkeleyDB location... /usr
checking Berkeley DB Version... configure: error: This release of cfengine 
requires BerkeleyDB 3.2 or later

It worked with
./configure --with-berkeleydb=/usr
checking for BerkeleyDB location... /usr
checking Berkeley DB Version... 3.3.11 OK
checking for db_create in -ldb... yes

The dynamically linked cfagent resulting from compilation works well.

2) I wanted to compile cfengine statically, but it fails:

./configure --with-berkeleydb=/usr LDFLAGS=-static
was fine, but now make gives: (when linking):

I suspect this is about the same problem. Here is the ldd output on a 
dynamically linked cfagent:
