I am using mandrake-8.0 and i have installed db1, db2 ,db3 rpms , but still when i do ./configure in the top directory of the coda source , it fails , by saying ,
dbopen - not found
dbm_open - not found
unable to find libdb
where as /lib/libdb.so  is a link to /lib/libdb-3.1.so 

what is the exact problem , Can anyone tell me how to compile it .

where as all other sources compile without problem 
these sources were 
lwp
rvm
rpc2

Any pointers will be appriciated .
