Now, now -- no need to shout.  The problem seems to be that portsman
does not understand the new format of the INDEX file introduced on
July 14th.

In any case, your first point of contact should be with the port's
maintainer, Anselm Garbe -- who in this case also happens to be the
author of the software.  He may well be working on an update, and it
would be up to him to submit any updates.  Until then, I'm afraid
you're just going to have to be patient.

	Cheers,
