Hi
Im following the guide here (
https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/master/doc/build-osx.md) to install Bitcoin on my Mac. I want to be able to run bitcoind with and without the GUI.
The first time I went though this guide, I DIDNT install berkeley-db@4, and used the configuration:
./autogen.sh
./configure --without-bdb --with-gui=yes
However, when i run `make` and then `./src/bitcoind` it fails and I get the message:

The error being `Error: Failed to open database path '/Users/me/Library/Application Support/Bitcoin/wallets/My Bitcoin Core Wallet'. Build does not support Berkeley DB database format`
So I went back and installed berkley with `brew install berkeley-db@4`. Then I again ran:
./autogen.sh
./configure --without-bdb --with-gui=yes
and then:
make
But when I run `./src/bitcoind` I STILL get the same error above. What am I doing wrong?
