Fwd: Portsdb problem

[Matt Bostock :: RetroWeb.net Owner]

Hello,

I'm experiencing difficulties when trying to run "portsdb -Uu" on this box:

FreeBSD rubix.retroweb.net 5.3-RELEASE-p23 FreeBSD 5.3-RELEASE-p23 #9:
Tue Oct 11 15:31:32 UTC 2005
root at rubix.retroweb.net:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/RETROWEB  i386

The error is shown below. Any suggestions would be very gratefully
appreciated, many thanks for your time.

Best regards,
Matt Bostock

********************************************************************
Before reporting this error, verify that you are running a supported
version of FreeBSD (see http://www.FreeBSD.org/ports/) and that you
have a complete and up-to-date ports collection.  (INDEX builds are
not supported with partial or out-of-date ports collections -- in
particular, if you are using cvsup, you must cvsup the "ports-all"
collection, and have no "refuse" files.)  If that is the case, then
report the failure to ports at FreeBSD.org together with relevant
details of your ports configuration (including FreeBSD version,
your architecture, your environment, and your /etc/make.conf
settings, especially compiler flags and WITH/WITHOUT settings).

Note: the latest pre-generated version of INDEX may be fetched
automatically with "make fetchindex".
