Since I don't want to needlessly clutter the list, I'll reply to both
you and
Matthias in one post.

Unfortunately, the only current  version rpm at eslrahc.com is for 10.1
and it complains I don't have libdb-4.2.so, which I actually do have.
RPMs are a great way to keep versions current, but since every distro
thinks it knows where files belong even if the application's creator
thinks otherwise, and since I compiled BDB from source...:-(

As far as Matthias' question as to whether the original problem belonged
to bogofilter or was of my creation, I'm inclined to think it was mine.
  apparently, J had once installed an old RPM which I did not use and
forgot was there.  Compiling from source and installing while the
remnants of the old installation were there, is the likely culprit.

I'll try to avoid such problems this time.  Thanks for all the help.

BTW, while it worked here, it was great.
