Subject:   Portsdb returns error after cvsup - How to Proceed?
Message-ID:  <43399E75.6080708@mkproductions.org>

next in thread | raw e-mail | index | archive | help
Hi everyone. I CVSupped yesterday to make sure I got the Firefox fix. My 
plan was to do the following:

# cvsup -g -L 2 ports-supfile
# portsdb -Uu
# portversion -l "<"
# portupgrade -arR

After cvsupping and running portsdb -Uu, I got an error which is at the 
end of my email.

Today I tried a "make index" from /usr/ports/, and that seemed to run 
OK. A "portupgrade -arRn" simulated the upgrade process and nothing 
seemed to fail, but I want to be safe and not mess anything up as I am 
relatively new to portupgrade and don't want a big mess.

I did the same process that I listed above a couple weeks ago and 
everything went fine, so I was surprised to see the error this time.

I'm not sure how to proceed, so thanks in advance for any suggestions.

********************************************************************
Before reporting this error, verify that you are running a supported
version of FreeBSD (see http://www.FreeBSD.org/ports/) and that you
have a complete and up-to-date ports collection.  (INDEX builds are
not supported with partial or out-of-date ports collections -- in
particular, if you are using cvsup, you must cvsup the "ports-all"
collection, and have no "refuse" files.)  If that is the case, then
report the failure to ports@FreeBSD.org together with relevant
details of your ports configuration (including FreeBSD version,
your architecture, your environment, and your /etc/make.conf
settings, especially compiler flags and WITH/WITHOUT settings).

Note: the latest pre-generated version of INDEX may be fetched
automatically with "make fetchindex".
