Hi, I'm having a problem with portupgrade on 4.9:

# portupgrade -f sudo\*
Updating the ports index ... Generating INDEX.tmp - please wait.. Done.
done
[Updating the portsdb <format:bdb1_btree> in /usr/ports ... - 11962 port
entries found
.........1000.........2000.........3000.........4000.........5000.........6000.........7000.........8000....../usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/portsdb.rb:587:
[BUG] Segmentation fault
ruby 1.8.2 (2004-07-29) [i386-freebsd4]

Abort trap (core dumped)

I'm not sure why /usr/ports/INDEX isn't there anymore - it's a problem I'm
having on all of my 4.x machines - everytime I cvsup portupgrade wants to
generate an INDEX.tmp before it doesn anything... But the real problem is
the segfault with ruby, which can be reliably reproduced ad infinitum.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance.
