> /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -ldb1

This indicates the linker could not find a library called "db1". It
should be in a file called "libdb1.a". If you type "locate libdb1" it
should print out locations of that library file, if it exists.

libdb1.a is part of glibc2.1. in particular, on my system it is part
of glibc-devel-2.1.2-11, which are the development files for glibc. If
you type "rpm -qa | grep glibc" you can find what glibc packages you
have installed.

If you don't have a glibc-devel package installed, go get the rpm (if
you have glibc-blah.rpm, go get glibc-devel-blah.rpm) and install and
you should be all set.
