Berkeley DB conflict

[Derek Harland]

The PortFile detects the existence of berkely db in /usr/local by checking for the following file:

	/usr/local/include/db.h
so make sure that is also moved ... I suspect you only moved the libs/bins?

Before installing macports, I had the Berkeley DB libs and binaries installed on my system (running Snow Leopard) under /usr/local/lib and when installing something that depended on them in macports, it generated an error suggesting I move it aside so it could install a different (slightly older) version under /opt. I did. I also moved all the related binaries from /usr/local/bin and tried everything else that I can think of including a complete removal and reinstall of macports and rebooting the MacBook Pro. But it continues to report the same conflict:
