Is this really true? I haven't tested, but I was under the impression that when installing something with a variant, any dependencies that are installed at this time also have the same variant applied to them. Meaning, if you don't have apr-util installed, and you install subversion +no_bdb, apr-util should also have +no_bdb applied when it gets automatically installed.
That's the way it's supposed to work (and the reason why the variants are named the same). I haven't tried it recently to know if it's broken or not. Ryan may have had apr-util already installed when he needed to rebuild it to get it without bdb. -- Daniel J.
