I have been having a problem with portugrade for a couple of weeks. I get the 
following error when trying to update ports. I have updated ports, deleted 
the entire /usr/ports/ dir, rm -f pkgdb and /usr/ports/ INDEX file. Did not 
see any other possible soulutions. Can someone point me in the right 
direction. Would like to have updated ports.
Thanks Dantavious
