Gotcha!
So, If I'm going to use the Port & make changes anyway, since,
grep berkeley-db Makefile
CONFIGURE_ARGS+=--enable-assembler --with-berkeley-db
I suppose I might as well just do
vi Makefile
.if ${ARCH} == "i386"
- CONFIGURE_ARGS+=--enable-assembler --with-berkeley-db
+ CONFIGURE_ARGS+=--enable-assembler --without-berkeley-db
.endif
I know about the BDB-engine removal, too. Funny that this Port
doesn't give you that option.
Thanks a lot!
