>Description:
When linking in code from libkdb5.so which calls kdb2_dbopen(), you end
up with the following error:
Undefined                       first referenced
 symbol                             in file
kdb2_dbopen                         /krb5/lib/libkdb5.so

Having looked into this, it would appear that the source code from
src/util/db2 is never installed anywhere nor aggregated as a part of
something else.

>How-To-Repeat:
See description.
>Fix:
A workaround is to manually put src/util/db2/obj/libdb.a in /krb5/lib/ as
libdb2.a and link with -ldb2.  That db2 isn't being built as a shared library
I can get over, for now.  In the long term, it would be nice to see
kdb2_dbopen() actually inside libkdb5.so so this is not necessary.
