After installing 6.2 and all the ports I use on a new machine, I have: apr-db42-1.2.8_2 db41-4.1.25_4 db42-4.2.52_5 and there is db43 out there as well, probably just waiting to be installed. db41-4.1.25_4 is used by: portupgrade-2.3.1,2 ruby18-bdb-0.6.2 db42-4.2.52_5 is used by: apr-db42-1.2.8_2 Which is required by subverson (I need BDB access in subversion). Do I need all these different version of db? I guess there is no huge downside to having them all installed, but it doesn't seem clean to my anal-retentive nature. Is there a make.conf flag that will just make them all use db42 (or db43)? Is that wise? Tankko
