Add an entry about and on how to avoid portsdb segfaults. I don't know
if the bug in the imported bdb 1.85 which causes this has ever been fixed and if so which FreeBSD versions contain the fix - feel free to add that information to the entry.

time you update your ports collection, before attempting any port

portsdb(1) is part of the portupgrade suite and is used to convert a ports
|
||||
INDEX file to a binary INDEX.db database. By default, it uses the libc-builtin
|
||||
berkeley db to do so, which has a buggy btree implementation.
|
||||
|
||||
If you see errors like "[BUG] Segmentation fault" while a portsdb update is
|
||||
in progress, adjust the PORTS_DBDRIVER variable (in your environment or in
|
||||
pkgtools.conf) to either bdb_hash or bdb_btree (the latter requires you to install
|
||||
the sysutils/ruby-bdb port).
