So this happens with ports other than libtheora, ports that you have no problem installing manually, with make deinstall && make clean install && make clean? And there is never any descriptive message given? "Unknown Build Error" or "Unknown Install Error" or the like? If so, you could try forcibly rebuilding portupgrade and it's dependencies, and see if that fixes the problem. If it doesn't, and you think that your ports tree and INDEX file are okay, there may be a problem with your package database -- /var/db/pkg by default. In which case you may have to clean everything out and rebuild, if you can't find the problem. There have been other problems reported with portupgrade, but it works fine for me, so I think the issue is peculiar to your system. b.
