libzdb help!

[Bradley Giesbrecht]

I am familiar with -d. Been running it all day.

I have tried to find a way to influance the configure script without  
patching but I gave up and patched it.

# port configure // fails

# cd work/libzdb-2.3/ && ./configure --prefix=/opt/local // works

As far as I know --prefix typically influences the install dir and not  
the finding of libs or includes.
But I'm not a strong unix admin.

Just try the scripts I attached. Takes about a minute or two to add  
them to a local repo.

I have the scripts dumbed down on purpose. Running ./configure with no  
args (or with prefix=/opt/local if you prefer) from ${worksrcdir} or  
what ever that var is named works.
Running "port configure" does not work.
