portindex causes ruby to dump core

[epilogue]

hello radim / ports,

i can confirm radek's report below.  i'm using portindex on 4.10.  for me,
the problem is intermittent.  with some sup's it goes away and with others
it is present.  go figure.

i just upgraded from portindex 12 to 13.  at the moment, i am unable to
use the portupgrade suite of tools and even some of the portindex tools.

# portversion -v
[Failed `Inappropriate file type or format'] [Updating the portsdb
<format:bdb1_btree> in /usr/ports ... - 11215 port entries found

Killed   <<<< note that on my machine, ruby doesn't dump core like
Radek's.  i had to manually kill it.

hope this helps.


cheers,

p.s.  as stated by Radek, portsdb -U fixes the problem.
