Comment(by remy.apfelbacher@…):

 Replying to [comment:6 raimue@…]:
 > You could add db46 and xercesc to distfiles instead of relying on the
 other ports. Unfortunately we cannot specify `dist_subdir` per file, which
 means users would have to download multiple times.

 systems.

 So you are basically saying to add db46 and xerces2.8 to the "distfiles"
 section (or which ever versions will be required), right?

 The both packages will then be downloaded and compiled twice. Ok, this
 shouldn't be a big deal e.g. regarding disk usage. But would you also
 suggest to have them installed in the non standard location/folder, so
 that they will not get into conflict when the standard "db46" and xercres
 ports are getting installed regularly?
