Amavisd failed to restart due to BerkeleyDB, libdb, and db.h incompatibility

[後藤潔]

I forced upgrade of amavisd-new by suggestion, but got the same error message.  Amavisd-new is still running with db53  @5.3.21_0+sql.

I would appreciate it if you could file a ticket of this one.

Thank you in advance.

>>> I don't know if there's a valid reason for this, but it sounds like when amavisd-new is compiled, the version of db53, as listed in the db.h header, is recorded into the perl modules installed with amavisd-new. Then, when the db53 port is later updated, the version recorded into its library is no longer the same as the one amavisd-new was compiled with, which results in the error.
