You have to configure and build again after installing the libraries, 
regardless, because if configure doesn't detect the libraries it sets up
so that the map caching code is not compiled.  Just installing the libraries
and headers won't enable map caching in a code built while they weren't 
available.

Since Earl has already installed libdb4.5 he should now just need to install
libdb4.5-dev --- ignore my previous instructions to install libdb4.4-dev, 
unless you also de-install libdb4.5 first.  You want to have only one version
of libdb installed so that configure is sure to pick up only the right matching
versions of things.
