i think your problem has a relatively simple solution. what is going
on is that db.h and libdb aren't in the expected places. locate where
they are, and add the appropriate lines to Local/Makefile, e.g.
something like

LIBS=-L/usr/lib -ldb1
INCLUDE=/usr/include/db1

to setup berkeley db 1.82 on a redhat 7.1 system (it depends very much
on the distribution on what the correct setup for these are.)

then recompile the system. this is generally preferable to scattering
symlinks about your file system.
