A "stupid" build problem (stupid for me ;)

I think it would be helpful if the build message was changed from:
checking for Berkeley DB >= 3... configure: error: no - please install
Berkeley DB >= 3

to:
checking for Berkeley Db >= 3.. configure: error: no - please install
Berkeley DB >= 3 and Berkeley DB -devel 

That way people could figure out what the issue is from the build
messages.
