>=20
I can check the version like this (I think):
. if !defined(WITH_BDB_VER)=20
WITH_BDB_VER=3D 42
. endif
. if (${WITH_BDB_VER} < 42)
BROKEN=3D Does not run with less than db42
. endif
But how do I know if the dependency ports are compiled with the right
version? Is this the right way of doing this or is there a better way?
