aarch64: Building so HAVE_DB is defined

[worikgh]

Friends

I am building Jack on aarch64 (Debian 13, Raspberry Pi 5) and I do not want to build in mixed mode (as that causes HAVE_DB to be undefined and that causes lots of test failures in some other software dependent on Jack... long story omitted)

It should be the default (?)

I have tried:

./waf configure --prefix=~/.local 
./waf configure --prefix=~/.local --no-mix
./waf configure --prefix=~/.local --mixed=no

I am at a loss, can anybody please help?

The output of configure is telling me that I am not in mixed mode:

./waf configure --prefix=~/.local |grep mixed
Build with 32/64 bits mixed mode            : no

But HAVE_DB is undefined

I am ignorant of waf but I see:

    if Options.options.mixed:
[snip]
        # libdb does not work in mixed mode
        conf.all_envs[lib32]['HAVE_DB'] = 0

I am quite confused!

Ensure that the development libraries for the Berkeley DB are installed, and do not use --mixed in ./waf configure (which turns off the DB) and HAVE_DB will be defined.

On Debian 13 the development libraries for the Berkeley DB are in the package:libdb5.3-dev
