Hi John --

I am unable to recreate the issue using a clean Buster environment. However, there are some deltas in your dpkg output vs. mine:

root@6a9a828130f5:/usr/src/freeswitch# dpkg --list | grep gdbm
ii  libgdbm-compat-dev                  1.18.1-4                     amd64        GNU dbm database routines (legacy support development files)
ii  libgdbm-compat4:amd64               1.18.1-4                     amd64        GNU dbm database routines (legacy support runtime version)
ii  libgdbm-dev:amd64                   1.18.1-4                     amd64        GNU dbm database routines (development files)
ii  libgdbm6:amd64                      1.18.1-4                     amd64        GNU dbm database routines (runtime version)

Hi.  I am trying to set up fs 1.10.2 under Debian buster, but mod_perl
will not compile.  I get the following error:

make[4]: Entering directory

 Now  here are the gdbm packages I have:
 ii  libgdbm-compat4:amd64               1.18.1-4
 amd64        GNU dbm database routines (legacy support runtime
 version)
 ii  libgdbm-dev:amd64                   1.18.1-4
 amd64        GNU dbm database routines (development files)
 ii  libgdbm3:amd64                      1.8.3-14
 amd64        GNU dbm database routines (runtime version)
 ii  libgdbm6:amd64                      1.18.1-4
 amd64        GNU dbm database routines (runtime version)

Am I missing a package or otherwise doing something wrong?

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
