BerkeleyDB 18.1 was released on June 14th, 2018 according to homepage: https://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/database-technologies/berkeleydb/overview/index.html Versions 6.1 and 6.2 are failing the test suite and are masked, but maybe it is fixed in this release?
>=db-6.1 versions are masked because they have AGPL-3 license which makes them incompatible with many consumers. I doubt this is any different with newer releases.
(In reply to Lars Wendler (Polynomial-C) from comment #1) > >=db-6.1 versions are masked because they have AGPL-3 license which makes them incompatible with many consumers. I doubt this is any different with newer releases. No, if that was the case 6.0.20 and newer would also be masked. Also, you already raised this point in another bug and it was confirmed to be masked only for failing tests: https://bugs.gentoo.org/649194#c3 But you are right, license of this new version is still AGPLv3.
Alright, I gave this a try but this release requires openssl and can not be built with openssl-1.1. So Giving up on this until either a patch is available or a newer release fixes this.
Nevermind, found a configure option to disable openssl usage in the affected code. Committing the version shortly.
