Trouble compiling RPM 4.0.4 (sources not found in db3 dir.)

["Tim Howard" <tdhoward75 hotmail com>]

Hello,

  I have just recently started using Linux (Slackware 7.0) and I am trying 
to compile RPM 4.0.4.  I unpacked the rpm-4.0.4.tar.gz from the root 
directory, CDed to /rpm-4.0.4, and typed ./configure.
 After running for a while, configure exits with these errors:

configuring in db3
running /bin/sh ./configure  --cache-file=.././config.cache  --srcdir=.
configure: error: cannot find sources in .
mv: Makefile: No such file or directory
etc...
configure: error: ./configure failed for db3

If I go to the db3 directory and type ./configure, that part runs fine, but 
it always chokes when I run ./configure from  /rpm-4.0.4.  What am I doing 
wrong?  Is there another file that I need to download?  Or is this a known 
occurence?

Thanks,
-Tim H.
