in thread Error during compilation of 5.8.8 on solaris 10

This is the closest I see to a package that installs libdb: db-4.2.52.NC-sol10-sparc-local.gz
db is the Berkeley open source embedded database system - installs in /usr/local/BerkeleyDB.4.2. This packages also requires that you have install either libgcc or gcc.

note.. I have installed the gcc
does that sound close to what I need?
Thanks again for all the help.

    Yep. I definitely prefer 'gcc' for compiling on Solaris; in my experience, it's more flexible and forgiving than Sun's own compiler.

    You may also find this to be a useful and pertinent read: DB_File-1.817.readme.
