I'm trying to install Apache2::ServerUtil from CPAN. During make, I get the
following complaint:

************* WARNING *************

Your Perl is configured to link against libgdbm,
but libgdbm.so was not found.
You could just symlink it to /usr/lib/libgdbm.so.3.0.0


************* WARNING *************

However:

ddjones@Luke:/$ ls -ald /usr/lib/libgdb*

lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 23 2006-05-11 18:16 /usr/lib/libgdbm_compat.so.3 ->
libgdbm_compat.so.3.0.0

-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 6472 2006-04-23 23:25 /usr/lib/libgdbm_compat.so.3.0.0

lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 16 2006-05-11 18:16 /usr/lib/libgdbm.so.3 ->
libgdbm.so.3.0.0

-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 19940 2006-04-23 23:25 /usr/lib/libgdbm.so.3.0.0


libgdbm.so.3.0.0 does exist in /usr/lib.

Doh! I misunderstood the error message. Created the link and the warning
went away.
