Hello,

I'm running 6.2-RELEASE-p2, SMP, x86.

I get the following error when using portupgrade (on every port, not
just this one):

deimos# portupgrade -PR libmpeg2
[Updating the portsdb >format:bdb_btree> in /usr/ports ... - 16851
port entries found
{lines cut} ..... done]
[missing key: categories: Cannot read the portsdb!
database file error

{following some ruby errors regarding the fact that the db can't be
read?!}

In /usr/ports/ i have .portsnap.INDEX, INDEX, INDEX-5, INDEX-6,
INDEX-6.db, and of course the ports folders.


Any idea what i'm doing wrong?

Thanks.
