Can you try with py-bsddb3 instead?

Error: Port py-bsddb not found
This is the error when I try running it. Any work around?

I didn't expect Python 3.8 to be installed, but I don't get why it doesn't find it once it is
Maybe there's a py2-bsddb3 or a py27-bsddb3 and you could try to install to test with Python 2.7?
If it doesn't work can you open a Python console with both version, run from bsddb.db import * and report here what error you get?
Same for from bsddb3.db import *

@gildash2 I'm having exactly the same trouble you are. On my own I attempted changing "py-bsddb" to "py-bsddb3" and got the same results you did... python 3.8 was installed, pywallet still complained.
Leaving this comment hoping I'll get a notification if it gets resolved! :)

I think it's a issue with macports - you'll see what when it want's to resolve py-bsddb3, it want's to download py39 and use those versions. For me, (on a Mac) I had to just stop using macports all together, use brew to install the Berkley db - and use: pip install ecdsa

Then run the script like this: BERKELEYDB_DIR=$(brew --prefix berkeley-db@4) python pywallet.py –dumpwallet which runs the script, which gets me past the other "missing required" issues - but I'm still getting a:

pywallet % python pywallet.py --dumpwithbalance WARNING:root:pycrypto or libssl not found, decryption may be slow A mandatory option is missing
