portupgrade on my two 4.x boxes seems to have gone wrong, starting just
today. The last successful of run of portupgrade (on only one of those
systems) was to upgrade thunderbird on 14.07.2005. But today
#portupgrade <any-port>
outputs the following:
[Failed `Inappropriate file type or format'] [Updating the portsdb
<format:bdb1_btree> in /usr/ports ... - 13190 port entries found
.........1000.........2000.........3000.........4000.........5000.........6000.........7000.........8000.........9000.........10000.........11000........./usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/portsdb.rb:613:
[BUG] Segmentation fault
ruby 1.8.2 (2004-12-25) [i386-freebsd4]
Abort (core dumped)
and, indeed, there is a ruby18.core file of some 10 Mb.
Naturally, the <any-port> is not upgraded.
Most mystifying is, there has been change neither to any ruby ports nor
to portupgrade itself, since the most recent uses of the portupgrade.
Output from relevant pkg_info is as follows:
# pkg_info | grep ruby

(ruby-1.6 is on only one system; some cruft i haven't taken time to
clean out, but it hasn't caused any problem, so don't think that's related)
This problem does *not* appear today on my 5.x system.
Thanks for any help, advice.
