 (Replying with CC since I'm still figuring out gnats usage)
 
 I had the same error (cannot find -ldb4) on Linux with
 net/py-ORBit, and adding db4/buildlink3 fixed the build there
 as well.
 
 I tried to reproduce / determine the problem as follows before
 checking gnats:
 
   - ./configure --prefix=/usr/pkg within the build directory : OK
   - pkgsrc configure line within the build directory : OK
   - pkgsrc 'env' line + ./configure --prefix=/usr/pkg : OK
   - pkgsrc 'env' line + pkgsrc configure line: NOK
 
 Although I couldn't find the problem, I also noticed the 'extra'
 libraries being appended to the compile line in config.log -
 for orbit2, it looks like the configure script is using output
 from python distutils to modify the compile line -
 this might be the case for gtkhtml too.
 
 I'll try a gtkhtml build after more needed dependencies have built
 to see if I run into the same problem on that package & will respond
 if so. If not, this is perhaps another data point.
 
 Thanks,
