Thank you for your patience, but obviously that just won't do, will
it?
Basically there's a trivial fix. But I'll get on my Fedora guys to
wise me up as to policy, I bet there is a consistent pattern here that
we could take advantage of (and not just in Fedora).
Same thing with Gentoo. We also have the gdbm include files
in /usr/include/gdbm. We solve this by adding -I/usr/include/gdbm to the
CFLAGS when the user wants to build with gdbm.
Kind regards,
Hans
