I'm trying to install Subversion on a computer running FreeBSD 4.9,
with a fully updated Ports tree. There seems to be some kind of
apr-related problem, though it's not clear why.

When I first ran portinstall, it installed apr itself, and everything
ran smoothly with that install, but when it returned to Subversion
I got

---
===>   Returning to build of subversion-1.0.8
===>  Configuring for subversion-1.0.8

You select to use`devel/apr' for apr library.
It seems that `devel/apr' is not properly installed.

*** Error code 1
---

I checked, and apr does seem to be installed (with the package
apparently called apr-nothr-gdbm-db4-1.0.0), but trying to re-run
the Subversion install dies in the same way.

What's going on? The only thing in UPDATING is talking about
installing Subversion with Apache2, which I am not doing; I
couldn't find anything relevant on the mailing lists.

Thanks.
