All the db* ports install files with the version number embedded in them, so you can have multiple versions installed without conflicts. "ldd /path/to/exe" will tell you which library a given binary is linked with, and you can run "pkg_info -R 'db4*'" to determine which ports depend on which versions of db. -- Dan Nelson dnel...@allantgroup.com _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
