Hi,

I've had an index generation error for a couple of days. I'm running
the standard supfile for ports, and cvsup'ing from  a local mirror.
I have no refuse files and always cvsup ports-all.

>From uname -a:

5.3-RELEASE FreeBSD 5.3-RELEASE #0: Wed Nov 17 12:14:30 EST 2004

>From /usr/share/examples/cvsup/ports-supfile:

*default host=CHANGE_THIS.FreeBSD.org
*default base=/var/db
*default prefix=/usr
*default release=cvs tag=.
*default delete use-rel-suffix

>From /etc/make.conf:

SUPFLAGS=       -g -L 2
SUPHOST=        cvsup.au.FreeBSD.org
CPUTYPE?=i686
COPTFLAGS= -O -pipe

Appended is the error output. I'm presuming a problem with the port
in question as the contents of the directory are:

% ls /usr/ports/textproc/p5-Sort-PolySort
README.html


cheers,

********************************************************************
Before reporting this error, verify that you are running a supported
version of FreeBSD (see http://www.FreeBSD.org/ports/) and that you
have a complete and up-to-date ports collection.  (INDEX builds are
not supported with partial or out-of-date ports collections -- in
particular, if you are using cvsup, you must cvsup the "ports-all"
collection, and have no "refuse" files.)  If that is the case, then
report the failure to ports@FreeBSD.org together with relevant
details of your ports configuration (including FreeBSD version,
your architecture, your environment, and your /etc/make.conf
settings, especially compiler flags and WITH/WITHOUT settings).

Note: the latest pre-generated version of INDEX may be fetched
automatically with "make fetchindex".
