[Spambayes] Database Format

[Brent L Johnson]

OK - I downloaded BerkeleyDB 4.2 and installed
it under /usr/local/ (under Linux).  I then
downloaded pybsddb and followed the instructions
for building it.  I didnt get any errors until I
ran the test .. and it hung on:

test02_threaded (bsddb3.tests.test_lock.LockingTestCase) ...

(and hung bad.. I had to do a control-\ to break out)

I ran the "python setup.py install" anyway, and it seems
to install (I suppose.. I dont know much about python).
And I still get the same errors.

Hrm...

- Brent
