#24731: db50: new port of Berkeley DB version 5.0.21 ------------------------------+--------------------------------------------- Reporter: brad@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 1.8.2 Keywords: | Port: ------------------------------+--------------------------------------------- I saw on unix-porting@lists.apple.com some talking about Berkeley DB version 5.0.21. Since there is no db50 in macports I decided to create on as an exercise. I don't use bdb directly so I don't know how well this works. I created a patch for Makefile.in that fixes a couple configure options that are ignored making for a nicer install. Also configure checks for sed but Makefile.in only uses it once leaning on a hardcoded "sed" command elsewhere which seemed dumb but maybe there is a reason. I'm thinking if the patch works well here I may offer it upstream. Mostly I just want some critical review by MP's committers as to the quality of the Portfile, if time allows:) Thanks, Bradley Giesbrecht -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/24731> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
