- Description as follows
Version 4.3 of the Berkeley Data Base library which offers (key/value) storage
with optional concurrent access or transactions interface.
Utilities are included in the distribution to convert v1.85 databases to v4.3
databases, and a backwards compatible API is provided to maintain
compatibility with programs using the v1.85 interface.
For details on compatibility with other DB versions, see:

Note to other porters who want their port to depend on this one: Use
LIB_DEPENDS=db-4.2.2:${PORTSDIR}/databases/db42-nocrypto
Usually, setting
CONFIGURE_ENV?= CPPFLAGS="-I${LOCALBASE}/include/db42"
LDFLAGS="-L${LOCALBASE}/lib/db42" LIBS="-ldb-4.2"
will then work to get the right DB library. At run time, the proper
library will be looked up by its SONAME, which is "libdb-4.2.so.2" and
resides in /usr/local/lib.

non-compatible upgrade, and most other ports using db4 weren't ready
for it. The new 4.1.25 version will appear in a db41 port soon.
Also make the dump185 utility build (fix a typo), and bump PORTEPOCH.
Give maintainership to the submitter (from ports@).

"A somewhat cumbersome update to db to have it build
a shared lib. Ports depending on it will now be
able to use a simple LIB_DEPENDS instead of
a semantically incorrect RUN_DEPENDS."
