The only way I can think of to do this is to use ldd to see which dynamic library the two of them are linked against, e.g.
% ldd /usr/local/bin/postfix libdb.so.3 => /lib/libdb.so.3 (0x40018000) libnsl.so.1 => /lib/libnsl.so.1 (0x40053000) libresolv.so.2 => /lib/libresolv.so.2 (0x40069000) libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x40078000) /lib/ld-linux.so.2 => /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x40000000) % ldd /usr/local/lib/python2.1/lib-dynload/bsddb.so libdb.so.3 => /lib/libdb.so.3 (0x40009000) libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x40044000) /lib/ld-linux.so.2 => /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x80000000)
So in my case both are linked against libdb.so.3.
What do yours say?
If they differ, read this page for hints on how to get Python to use the same bsddb module as Postfix:
