From 9dc803128115d81699c2cf79d245469c00eeaf1a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Vasil Dimov Date: Mon, 26 Mar 2018 17:33:29 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] net-p2p/bitcoin: Add an option to use newer BDB Make the new option the default, so that when the port is recompiled it will link against BDB 5.x or 6.x (whichever is the default in the system). This will keep old wallet files readable and will not automatically convert them in an incompatible with BDB 4.8 way. Newly created wallet files will not be readable by Bitcoin Core versions linked with BDB 4.8. Next thing to consider is to remove the option to link against BDB 4.8 as this will remove the net-p2p/bitcoin -> databases/db48 dependency and will make it possible to ditch the latter, which is scheduled for removal from the ports collection on Apr 30 2018.
