Unable to install Berkeley DB v6: conflicting install ... how??

[Frederick C. Lee]

Okay...
Found the problem:

/include:
db_cxx.h & db.h

These are the Oracle db headers that you probably were talking about.
I don't know what to do with them... store 'em elsewhere to see any problems
occur
and if not, trash them.
