Subject:   portversion / ruby is broken after updating ports
Message-ID:  <5c389d3b041003114592d020a@mail.gmail.com>

I update my ports every couple of days, and there were only a small
amount today that needed to be updated, so I ran the cvsup to update
ports file

I then typed `portsdb -Uu` and this came up:

server# portsdb -Uu
Updating the ports index ... Generating INDEX.tmp - please wait..***
Error code 1
1 error

********************************************************************
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not supported with partial or out-of-date ports collections -- in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".

so I tried to run `portversion` and this came up:

server# portversion
[Updating the portsdb <format:bdb1_btree> in /usr/ports ... - 11735

What can I do? Why is ruby doing this now?

Thanks.
