Release 3.3: --enable-dynamic, --enable-shared
In previous releases, Berkeley DB required separate configuration and builds
to create both static and shared libraries. This has changed in the
3.3 release, and Berkeley DB now builds and installs both shared and static
versions of the Berkeley DB libraries by default. This change was based on
Berkeley DB upgrading to release 1.4 of the GNU Project's Libtool distribution.
For this reason, Berkeley DB no longer supports the previous --enable-dynamic
and --enable-shared configuration options. Instead, as Berkeley DB now builds
both static and shared libraries by default, the useful options are
Libtool's --disable-shared and --disable-static options.
