Anybody have any ideas on this?
Once I started trying to build this new exim, my running exim now won't
complete deliveries with the error:
/usr/local/bin/exim: error while loading shared libraries:
/usr/local/bin/exim: undefined symbol: db_create
so I need to get this solved asap as no one has gotten mail in the last
day and a half, it appears...
Looking at the output of ldconfig there is a libdb available and it is
the same one as before as far as I can tell. I have also tried to
emerge a new libdb (succesfully) and I still get the error below in
building and the error above at runtime (of my current exim).
I don't quite know what to do at this point.
Thanks
Chad
