I've read a bit about it and how you can possibly get around it eith either sorting the INDEX-5 file or randomizing it with rl. This strikes me as being a horrible kluge. Anyone got any ideas at to how to fix it properly? I have it happening using pkgdb -F and portsdb -Uu on two different machines. I seem to have just gotten around it by removing the whole ports tree and cvsupping a new one on one machine, I'm going to try that on another as well.
