>Description:
www/ikiwiki package doesn't work under Linux and says 

   Error: new(): failed: couldn't load CGI::Session::Driver::db_file: 
   Can't locate DB_File.pm in @INC 

This happens because under Linux lang/perl5 is built without DB_File.pm.
At the same time DB_File.pm is built normally under NetBSD.

The following patch fixes the problem.

>How-To-Repeat:
Build www/ikiwiki under Linux and try to use it.

 This is a good point and would allow us to remove databases/p5-gdbm, too.
 Would it be ok to commit this during freeze or better after it?

 perl5 is imho too important to risk breaking for a Linux fix that may
 cause unforseen problems on other platforms. Please hold this until
 after the branch, but feel free to request a pullup later, after it's
 gotten some testing.

 +LOCINCPATH+=	${LOCALBASE}/${BUILDLINK_INCDIRS.${BDB_TYPE}}

 Shouldn't that be ${PREFIX}?
 (I know there are other LOCALBASE references in the Makefile.)

 If I understand correctly there were no objections against commiting.
 Freeze is in the past. I've checked patch perl under NetBSD-5/pkgsrc-2009Q3.
 It is built fine and PLIST doesn't change.
 perl -V also doesn't show significant difference.

 Probably yes, I followed minimal patch size principle and
 used LOCALBASE just because there were other places with it.

 My patch introduces the problem.
 http://mova.org/~cheusov/pub/pkgsrc-distbb/Linux/current/logs/20091016.2105/net_p5-Net-LibIDN_p5-Net-LibIDN-0.12/stage_configure.html

 After some thoughts I came to a conclusion that it is better to revert my
 original proposal and to *remove* DB_File extension from perl on all
 platforms including NetBSD. In this case perl will become lighter and
 packages requering DB_Fill (e.g. ikiwiki) should depend on
 databases/p5-DB_File.
