program to break gdbm
We don't build it that way, and this is a major reason why... Created attachment 55368 [details]
Patch I received from gdbm maintainer
Do you mean you don't build it as an archive file or you don't build it using the 64 bit offsets. I've attached a patch I got from the gdbm maintainer (downsj). Everything looks ok now, but considering how rare this was, it's hard to verify. We don't build gdbm with 64 bit offsets (may change). Unfortunately, gdbm has been rather stagnant for a long time, while bdb is alive and well. I'll take a look at the patch and will probably put it in. Added the patch and 64 bit directive to gdbm-1.8.0-15 You are probably aware of this, but there is no binary compatiblity between 32 and 64 bit gdbm databases. |
