Re: FAQ Answer: Compiling 2.0.3 on Red Hat Linux 7.2 (requires BerkeleyDB 3.2 or later)

[Allen Bettilyon]

I've brewed custom rpms on a system similar to redhat.  The build
portion of my spec file is as follows:


%build
./configure --with-berkeleydb=/usr --prefix=$RPM_BUILD_ROOT/usr 
make



Hope this helps.
