pkgdb -F -> fetching INDEX-5.bz2 every time

Hi,

I've got a rather interesting/anoying problem wrt. running pkgdb -F
after cvsup-ping my ports-tree: pkgdb fetches INDEX-5.bz2 on every
run! (for a sample output see below) 

Moreover in my /usr/ports I only have "INDEX-5" and "INDEX.db", but no
"INDEX" file.

In addition pkgdb complains about a missing origin of "jdk-1.4.2p7". I
suspect that this might be a leftover of a recent build of
Openoffice-1.1.4 which requires jdk-1.4.2p7" in order to build.


So here are my questions:

1) How can I fix the problem with pkgdb -F fetching INDEX-5.bz2 on
every run?

2) Why don't I have "INDEX" and "INDEX.db" on my machine, but only
"INDEX-5" and "INDEX.db"?

3) How can I fix the "Missing origin"-problem wrt. jdk-1.4.2p7.

Thanks much in advance for any clue,
-ewald
