+### Building BerkeleyDB
+
+BerkeleyDB is only necessary for the wallet functionality. To skip this, pass
+`--disable-wallet` to `./configure` and skip to the next section.
+
+It is recommended to use Berkeley DB 4.8. You cannot use the BerkeleyDB library
+from ports, for the same reason as boost above (g++/libstd++ incompatibility).
+If you have to build it yourself, you can use [the installation script included
+in contrib/](/contrib/install_db4.sh) like so:
+
+```shell
+./contrib/install_db4.sh `pwd`
+```
+
+from the root of the repository. Then set `BDB_PREFIX` for the next section:
+
+```shell
+export BDB_PREFIX="$PWD/db4"
+```
+
 ### Building Bitcoin Core
 
 **Important**: Use `gmake` (the non-GNU `make` will exit with an error).
 
 With wallet:
 ```
 ./autogen.sh
-./configure CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/pkg/include" LDFLAGS="-L/usr/pkg/lib" BOOST_CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/pkg/include" BOOST_LDFLAGS="-L/usr/pkg/lib"
-gmake
+./configure --with-gui=no CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/pkg/include" \
+ LDFLAGS="-L/usr/pkg/lib" \
+ BOOST_CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/pkg/include" \
+ BOOST_LDFLAGS="-L/usr/pkg/lib" \
+ BDB_LIBS="-L${BDB_PREFIX}/lib -ldb_cxx-4.8" \
+ BDB_CFLAGS="-I${BDB_PREFIX}/include"
 ```
 
 Without wallet:
 ```
 ./autogen.sh
-./configure --disable-wallet CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/pkg/include" LDFLAGS="-L/usr/pkg/lib" BOOST_CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/pkg/include" BOOST_LDFLAGS="-L/usr/pkg/lib"
-gmake
+./configure --with-gui=no --disable-wallet \
+ CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/pkg/include" \
+ LDFLAGS="-L/usr/pkg/lib" \
+ BOOST_CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/pkg/include" \
+ BOOST_LDFLAGS="-L/usr/pkg/lib"
+```
+
+Build and run the tests:
+```bash
+gmake # use -jX here for parallelism
+gmake check
 ```
