According to 20131216 from /usr/ports/UPDATING, devel/apr1 should use databases/db5 or databases/db6 as dependency now, not databases/db42 or other databases/db4*.

Hi Timofeev, devel/apr1 can use any Berkeley db starting from db42. The the line 'USE_BDB=42+' is technical correct, but I see your intention. Indeed Berkeley db is optional for apr. In case you don't run subversion with a Berkeley DB backend or use the htdbm utility explicit to create bdb databases it is save to switch this option to OFF. The correct way to use a higher DB version is - using WITH_BDB_VER=XX in etc/make.conf - install a higher version before building apr then this version is selected - bumping the default version in Mk/bsd.database.mk -- Regards, olli

Hi, Olli! Thank you for your reply! I know about WITH_BDB_VER=XX in etc/make.conf, but it's a kind of disadvantage from the box. I would prefer a solution that didn't make me add something to /etc/make.conf, because I don't care about what version of dbd I have. Just don't ask me and install that software=). But, OK.
