Subject: Re: installing bdb-0.6.5 in ubuntu

Your post is about a year old, but let me add to this thread instead of
starting another:

Well, at least yours installed! Mine does the following:

Building native extensions.  This could take a while...
ERROR:  Error installing bdb:

And this is after a lot googling, etc. My Berkeley DB installation is

something to do with bdb not working with ruby 1.9.1 ... any help is
welcome!
