Hi all,
I downloaded a fresh ports.tar.gz and unpacked it (FreeBSD 5.1).
Then I did a portsdb -Uu
Which resulted in the following:
Updating the ports index ... Generating INDEX.tmp - please
wait.."Makefile", line 26:

portsdb: index generation error
--------
On my two other FreeBSD boxes (5.2 and 5.2.1) it worked without problem.
Any suggestions (I googled the net without luck)?
Cheers
Günther
