[New-bugs-announce] [issue1191] Berkeley DB prerequisite inconsistent

[Bryan Henderson]

New submission from Bryan Henderson:

There's some inconsistency among the code and documentation as to the 
required level of Berkeley DB.  I don't know what the proper 
resolution, but I'm sure someone familiar with the history of this code 
does.  Something needs to be done to reduce the amount of time it takes 
someone (as it did me) to deal with not having the expected level of 
Berkeley DB installed.

I attached a file with a detailed explanation of my observations.
