According to "port search gda" we only have "libgda" version 1.2.4  
and "libgda3" version 3.0.1. We don't have a port for libgda version  
2. If you received a specific error about libgda 2, by all means show  
it to us. I personally probably won't be able to help, since I don't  
know anything about mono or libgda, but perhaps someone else on the  
list can help.

Please remember to reply to all when you reply, so that your reply  
goes also to the list, not just to me.

Ah, ok, so it's the same message as you got earlier. So when you  
asked MacPorts to install gtk-sharp, it tried to install libgda and  
ran into this problem.

I'll Cc the maintainer of libgda. Maybe he has an idea how to resolve  
this. Maybe the version of BerkeleyDB that you have installed is  
either too old or too new... but I'm just grasping at straws here.
