[PATCH] Configure fails to find -ldb

[Francois Tigeot]

Hi,

There's a small configure issue present in both -master and 4.0.0.0.alpha1:

...
checking for dbopen in -ldb... no
checking for __db185_open in -ldb... no
checking for dbopen in -ldb-$dbver... no
checking for __db185_open in -ldb-$dbver... no
checking for dbopen in -ldb$dbver... no
checking for __db185_open in -ldb$dbver... no
checking for dbopen in -ldb... (cached) no
checking for __db185_open in -ldb... (cached) no
configure: error: db library not found. Use the correct -L flag,
or install the Berkeley db development package.
Error running configure at ./autogen.sh line 192.

and is fixed by the attached patch.

Single quotes were used around a variable name in configure.ac, leading
it to check for files containing the verbatim variable name instead of
its content.

Subject: [PATCH] configure: fix check for libdb

Single quotes were used around a variable name in configure.ac, leading
configure to check for libraries named variations of libdb-$dbver.so
instead of the correct libdb-5.so.
