My ports were last updated July 2nd, 2007 and all installed ports were at their current versions then. I've updated my ports tree with cvs and remade INDEX the day before yesterday. Now I'm following instructions in UPDATING to upgrade ports that have special instructions. This is the error message I get: # portupgrade -f 'autoconf*' cd: can't cd to /usr/ports/sysutils/portupgrade [missing key: categories] [Updating the portsdb <format:bdb_btree> in /usr/ports ... - 17670 port entries found .........1000.........2000.........3000.........4000.........5000.........6000.........7000.........8000.........9000.........10000.........11000.........12000.........13000.........14000.........15000.........16000.........17000...... ..... done] missing key: categories: Cannot read the portsdb! /usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/portsdb.rb:548:in `open_db': database file error (PortsDB::DBError) from /usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/portsdb.rb:702:in `port' from /usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/portsdb.rb:890:in `all_depends_list' from /usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/pkgdb.rb:809:in `tsort_build' from /usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/pkgdb.rb:801:in `each' from /usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/pkgdb.rb:801:in `tsort_build' from /usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/pkgdb.rb:823:in `sort_build' from /usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/pkgdb.rb:827:in `sort_build!' from /usr/local/sbin/portupgrade:721:in `main' from /usr/local/lib/ruby/1.8/optparse.rb:755:in `initialize' from /usr/local/sbin/portupgrade:220:in `new' from /usr/local/sbin/portupgrade:220:in `main' from /usr/local/sbin/portupgrade:2084 Can anyone help me?
