Then take 'chinese' out of your refuse file.  In fact, if you want to
be able to build an INDEX yourself, you have to take all of the
language categories out of the refuse file.

Otherwise, just download a recently built INDEX by:

    # make fetchindex

and forget all about running portsdb before running portupgrade.
