SuSE 9.3: libdb4.3 conflict running obmtool

The remark in the readme.1st file:

----- snip -----

Debian Sarge

  When libdb4.3 is installed some programs are incorrectly linked
  agains the debian's libdb instead of the one from OpenPKG.  To work
  around this problem, deinstall the debian package.

----- snip -----

applies to SuSE 9.3 as well.

On my kolab server, SuSE db-4.3.27-3.rpm is installed (since I run a 
separate second openldap server on that machine on a different port as 
backend for SMB domain authentication).

This db-4.3.27-3.rpm has to be temporarily removed while executing 
"./obmtool kolab". If not, the result is that the kolab ldap server does 
not start afterwards (no log entries, apparently db failure when 
accessing the db backend).

I can reinstall the SuSE rpm after building and bootstrapping kolab without
causing problems to kolab.

Harald
