I ran into the same issue. I found two solutions that worked. Neither is
very pretty.
1. Realizing that I would never install lmtpd, I simply commented out the
lines in the makefile pertaining to DB3. The Makefile ended up looking like
this:
# .if defined(WITH_DB3)
# LIB_DEPENDS+= db3.3:${PORTSDIR}/databases/db3
# CONFIGURE_ARGS+= --with-db3=${LOCALBASE}/include/db3 --without-db4
# .else
# CONFIGURE_ARGS+= --without-db3
# .endif
.if defined(WITH_DB4)
LIB_DEPENDS+= db4:${PORTSDIR}/databases/db4
CONFIGURE_ARGS+= --with-db4=${LOCALBASE}/include/db4 --without-db3
.else
CONFIGURE_ARGS+= --without-db4
.endif
Why this sucked: I had to hand-edit the Makefile everytime I cvsuped the ports
directory.
2. Realizing that DB3 was a 'leaf package' (nothing depended on it), I simply
ran 'pkg_deinstall db3' at the command line. You check dependancies by
running 'pkg_info -a | grep -A 15 db3' at the command line. Look for a
"Required By:" line. As a safeguard, pkg_deinstall won't let you remove db3
if it's required by other packages.
