>Description:
This is a repeat of another PR. I don't know which one, but I'm sending it in
again because the mailhubs are losing and I need a PR number.
The Makefile.in in the libkadm5srv directory links against libdb. This is bad because libdb
is static and you are trying to pull a static library into a shared library.
This causes text segments to be duplicated.
>How-To-Repeat:
>Fix:
Probably, you don't want to even be setting LIBS in Makefile.in
use the USE_FOO_LIBRARY macros, if they
are still defined.
Certainly, don't link against libdb.
