+#### Installing berkeley-db4 using Homebrew
- openssl version
+The homebrew package for berkeley-db4 has been broken for some time. It will install without Java though.
-into Terminal. You should see OpenSSL 1.0.1h 5 Jun 2014.
+Running this command takes you into brew's interactive mode, which allows you to configure, make, and install by hand:
+```
+$ brew install https://raw.github.com/mxcl/homebrew/master/Library/Formula/berkeley-db4.rb -–without-java
+```
-If not, you can ensure that the Homebrew OpenSSL is correctly linked by running
+These rest of these commands are run inside brew interactive mode:
+```
+/private/tmp/berkeley-db4-UGpd0O/db-4.8.30 $ cd ..
+/private/tmp/berkeley-db4-UGpd0O $ db-4.8.30/dist/configure --prefix=/usr/local/Cellar/berkeley-db4/4.8.30 --mandir=/usr/local/Cellar/berkeley-db4/4.8.30/share/man --enable-cxx
+/private/tmp/berkeley-db4-UGpd0O $ make
+/private/tmp/berkeley-db4-UGpd0O $ make install
+/private/tmp/berkeley-db4-UGpd0O $ exit
+```
- brew link openssl --force
+After exiting, you'll get a warning that the install is keg-only, which means it wasn't symlinked to `/usr/local`. You don't need it to link it to build bitcoin, but if you want to, here's how:
+
+ $ brew --force link berkeley-db4
-Rerunning "openssl version" should now return the correct version. If it
-doesn't, make sure `/usr/local/bin` comes before `/usr/bin` in your
-PATH.
