Hi,

Have done at least the following:
 1 -  fresh ports cvsup for all the ports
 2 -  rm /var/db/pkg/pkgdb.db
 3 -  pkgdb -F
 
However portsdb -U fails and generates a lot of
error messages like the following:

   *** Error code 2: malformed entry: *** Error code 2
   *** Error code 2: malformed entry: *** Error code 2
   *** Error code 2: malformed entry: *** Error code 2
   cd: can't cd to wmthemeinstall: malformed entry: cd: can't cd to wmthemeinstall
   cd: can't cd to wmx: malformed entry: cd: can't cd to wmx
   cd: can't cd to xfce: malformed entry: cd: can't cd to xfce

What is corrupted, and how can I fix this?

Tnx,

---
