>Description:


After cvsup today (July 18th, 2004), portindex fails to build a useful INDEX file (it is empty). Error are like this:
Loading status data ...  ok!
Checking ports tree for changes. Abort with CTRL-C.
Updating portinfo for /usr/ports/accessibility/at-spi
Failed to extract describe information from /usr/ports/accessibility/at-spi
Updating portinfo for /usr/ports/accessibility/atk

Saving status data ...  ok!
Expanding dependences ...  done
Building /usr/ports/INDEX-5
0 total entries
0 duplicated entries discarded
0 ports with unresolved depends kept

Why it fails to extract, I don't know. But I guess that is the reason for the 'Removing port ..' lines.


>How-To-Repeat:


- cvsup ports
- run 'portindex'
