@@ -47,6 +47,16 @@ you update your ports collection, before attempting any port upgrades. You can add WITH_BDB_VER=5 or WITH_BDB_VER=6 to have all applications that get rebuilt use Oracle Berkeley DB 5 or 6, respectively. + DO NOT FORCE DELETE older BerkeleyDB packages, that breaks the upgrade + tools. Instead, first rebuild the ports that depend on it, then + remove the old Berkeley DB versions. + + Berkeley DB ports should be able to build/install with an older and a + newer version version both installed if WITH_BDB_VER is set. If a + port then grabs the old Berkeley DB version, that is an issue with the + port that requires Berkeley DB, and should be reported to the + maintainer. + If you are interested in upgrading now already, we have instructions at <https://wiki.freebsd.org/Ports/BerkeleyDBCleanup>. |
