Re: [Sks-devel] Linking error in sks-1.1.0

[Chris Kuethe]

and is that .a file really an archive? is it big enough to be a
library? does "file" think it's a library? does "ar t libdb.a" show
any objects? i'm thinking it's some libtool stupidity because it looks
like you're trying to link against the library in the db build
directory, rather than a correctly installed library...

GDB has a 'break' feature; why doesn't it have 'fix' too?
