Having problems using Portupgrade utilities because of Ruby.
It started last Friday and I waited for the weekend just in case the cvs =
tree will get updated with a possible fix.
Output of error is..
%portversion

It happens same for using portupgrade too.
I tried to google this and discovered that it is possible a ruby =
developer problem. The cvs tree was updated just recently and I tried to =
reinstall just to be sure. I did this by deinstalling both ruby and =
portupgrade. After I deinstalled ruby, I deleted the directory, =
/usr/local/lib/ruby.
I only installed portupgrade which installed ruby by "cd =
/usr/ports/sysutils/portupgrade/ ; make clean ; make install".
I still have this ruby problem above.

Any advices on how I can look into resolving this problem?
