Hello,

I use portupgrade to keep my installed ports up to date. When cvsupping
the ports tree just now, cvsup retrieved a rather old version of the INDEX
file (found in /usr/ports):

bash# ls -la INDEX
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel  1988444 Jan  7 02:43 INDEX

On another machine, cvsupped on about the 16 Jan:

bash$ ls -al INDEX
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel  2008004 Jan 16 23:40 INDEX

The INDEX file has shrunk significantly and portversion reports some ports
are now newer than the INDEX file. It looks like the INDEX file has jumped
back in time 7 days...

Is this a problem?

Regards,

d.
