You most probably have a refuse file in place. every time I encountered this problem, it was that. You can either try removing the language (actually, the section of the ports tree) in question from the refuse file, but you'll have this problem again sooner or later. You can simply get rid of the refuse file altogether (it isnt that much of a bandwidth saver really), or: >> Note: the latest pre-generated version of INDEX may be fetched >> automatically with "make fetchindex". run 'make fetchindex' after you update with cvsup. (which means you'll download the binary index from the cvsup server...so whatever you save by not downloading the language specific ports, you are probably using it here... > > Which steps do you think I should take to get rid of this error... ?? > as above.
