Hmmmm... I should definitely be sure to read this file *after* doing  
a portsnap update.

I've gotten portupgrade working again with the BDB 1.x backend. What  
do I need to if I want to move to the 2.x backend without running  
into the error message listed above? I tried deleting the .db files  
prior to the upgrade as instructed in UPDATING, but this didn't seem  
to do the trick.


Thanks for your help! At least I have a working portupgrade now =)
