Install Berkeley DB 4.8 from source:

BITCOIN_ROOT=$(pwd)
BDB_PREFIX="${BITCOIN_ROOT}/db4"
mkdir -p $BDB_PREFIX
wget 'http://download.oracle.com/berkeley-db/db-4.8.30.NC.tar.gz'
echo '12edc0df75bf9abd7f82f821795bcee50f42cb2e5f76a6a281b85732798364ef db-4.8.30.NC.tar.gz' | sha256sum -c
(it should display it succeeded)
tar -xzvf db-4.8.30.NC.tar.gz
cd db-4.8.30.NC/build_unix/
../dist/configure --enable-cxx --disable-shared --with-pic --prefix=$BDB_PREFIX
make install

...

if you don't want to bother with the berkeley db 4.8 installation, you can also ignore it by using
./configure --with-incompatible-bdb
when building chipsd

Berkeley DB version only matters if you want to have cross client wallet compatible
(a wallet created with a client that was build on 4.8 may not be usable with a client that was build on another version of bdb)

So if you extracted your privkeys and not planning to copy the wallet.dat for use with another client, you can ignore the dbd version 4.8 and use the version currently installed on your system

Thanks for this precision.
I prefer to be able to use my wallet.dat with any computer (vps, nas, home computer), and therefore, I try to always compile the same way.
