Thanks to all who answered (including offlist). If I would like to force all ports to become compiled with db48, I would use "WITH_BDB_VER=48", instead. Understood. But, is there a way to define something like "use at least db48" and ignore whatever is specified by the port, except, if the port specifies a version > db48. Sorry, that might be a dumb question of mine, but I just want to learn more about those knobs. Regards, Michael
