Hi, I tried to emerge subversion-1.3.2-r3 (and -r1) with the following error: "checking for availability of Berkeley DB... no configure: error: Berkeley DB 4.0.14 wasn't found." I tried emerge =sys-libs/db=4.0.14-r3 (and -r2) but this didn't change the behaviour of subverion's configure.
Bugzilla is _NOT_ the correct category. This is a Gentoo Linux bug.
I have same exact issue with subversion-1.3.2-r3 and db-4.3.29-r2 (it seems to search for older library and doesn't finds 4.3 one) ------------------------------------------------------------------ checking for availability of Berkeley DB... no configure: error: Berkeley DB 4.0.14 wasn't found. !!!

For me, an "emerge -1 apr-util" before re-emerging subversion did the trick. I think apr-utils re-emersion is needed after updating db.
I guess that you don't have the old db installed anymore. Indeed in that case apr-util needs to be rebuilt. Subversion uses the db version included in apr-util.
Not included, used by apr-util. In any case this is something I can't fix. It is caused by inexact dependency specification in portage (and dep tracking).
