On a 700 MHz Pentium III PC, it's already running for over an hour, without any indication of doing something useful. The /usr/ports/INDEX file has still size 0. portsdb -U also lasts for a long while, but at least finishes at some point :). Or have I broken anything in the ports administration? But what else is there than the INDEX file? Thanks, Rob.
