Haven't seen this one particularly, but I do often see wrong dependencies get registered somehow. I haven't been bothered enough by it to track it down; just pkgdb -F every once in a while... For, example, even though I use security/krb5, everything that uses Kerberos ends up with a dependency on security/heimdal. I think it's because LIB_DEPENDS finds a library that already exists (libkrb5.so) and blindly registers a dependency on the port that it think installed it, even though it came from somewhere else. BDB, on the other hand, shouldn't have that problem since the shared library versions are different between db3 and db4. You don't by chance have both installed? Though even then WITH_BDB_VER should add the correct dep. It could be a problem with recursive dependencies. How are you setting WITH_BDB_VER? Craig
