Major Problems

This request is much a cry in desperation. I have tried everything
possible, at least, everything I know to do. I have sent inquiries to the
ports list, none can solve it.

After I run my cvsup on my ports, I get this kind of stderr at the CLI
when I run the "portsdb -Uu":

--------------just a small snip of the errors------------------
make_index: ifm-4.1_2: no entry for /usr/ports/x11-toolkits/tk84
make_index: gnomeblog-0.7_1: no entry for /usr/ports/x11-toolkits/py-gtk2

Where can I go to get some help to fix this problem with the INDEX files
in "/usr/ports". Take my word for it. I have spent hours going through the
archives, google, and ports at freebsd.org. Would you please just toss a url
my way that has a solution to this. Anything, please....
