Add Berkeley DB 4.2.52 after repocopy from db41.
Note to other porters who want their port to depend on this one: Use LIB_DEPENDS=db-4.2.2:${PORTSDIR}/databases/db42-nocrypto Usually, setting CONFIGURE_ENV?= CPPFLAGS="-I${LOCALBASE}/include/db42" LDFLAGS="-L${LOCALBASE}/lib/db42" LIBS="-ldb-4.2" will then work to get the right DB library. At run time, the proper library will be looked up by its SONAME, which is "libdb-4.2.so.2" and resides in /usr/local/lib. PR: ports/60943 Submitted by: Matthias Andree <matthias.andree@gmx.de>

+Version 4.2 of the Berkeley Data Base library which offers (key/value) storage
+with optional concurrent access or transactions interface.

+Utilities are included in the distribution to convert v1.85 databases to v4.2
databases, and a backwards compatible API is provided to maintain
compatibility with programs using the v1.85 interface.
+Note that this port has a different layout than the 3.3, 4.0 and 4.1 ports,
+it does not rename libraries.
