From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041109 Firefox/1.0 Description of problem: It seems db4-4.2.52-6 was compiled in another way than compat-db-4.2.52-1. I compiled cyrus-imapd-2.2.8 myself some time ago against db 4.2.52, but today after upgrading to db 4.3.21 and compat-db 4.2.52 I was hit by this: -bash-3.00$ /usr/lib/cyrus-imapd/ctl_mboxlist /usr/lib/cyrus-imapd/ctl_mboxlist: symbol lookup error: /lib/libdb-4.2.so: undefined symbol: pthread_mutex_trylock [root@weizen ~]# rpm -qf /lib/libdb-4.2.so compat-db-4.2.52-1 This makes me believe that the new compat-db is not compiled like the old db4 package. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): compat-db-4.2.52-1 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Compile cyrus-imapd against db 4.2.52 2. Upgrade db4 to 4.3.21 3. Upgrade compat-db to 4.2.52 Additional info: I'm currently not able to compile cyrus-imapd against db 4.3, since cyrus has no support for it yet (compile error that can be fixed, but not sure about what happens then...).
Ah, yes. -lpthread is needed, db-4.1.25 had same problem.
OK, can you repackage this asap. I'd really would like to upgrade db4 and all the other stuff. I also guess, that other cyrus users will have this problem...
FWIW, cyrus needs to go to db-4.3.21, not otherwise, for a real fix. Meanwhile, libdb-4.2.so linked against -lpthread is in compat-db-4.2.52-2.
