+
+ The databases/db5 port has been upgraded to BerkeleyDB 5.3. This
+ entails a shared library bump.
+
+ Before upgrading this port, check if your applications use
+ transactional data bases, and if they do, prepare them for a log file
+ format upgrade. YOU MUST DO THIS BEFORE YOU UPGRADE THE DB5 PORT! See:
+ http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E17076_02/html/upgrading/upgrade_process.html
+
+ All packages that depend on db5 need to be rebuilt due to the shared
+ library version change. The full changelog is at
+ http://download.oracle.com/otndocs/products/berkeleydb/html/changelog_5_3.html
+
+ To upgrade the packages that need Berkeley DB 5, please
+ issue one of the following commands (depending on your preferred tool):
+
+ # portmaster -r db5-5
+ or
+ # portupgrade -fr databases/db5
+
