Greetings again. I used freebsd-update to upgrade a system from 7.1 to 7.2. The main upgrade went fine, but upgrading the ports had huge problems. It could not find most (but not all) of the packages to upgrade. A typical part of the failure looks like:

--->  Checking for the latest package of 'lang/python25'
--->  Fetching the package(s) for 'python25-2.5.4_3' (lang/python25)
--->  Fetching python25-2.5.4_3
fetch: ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-7.2-release/All/python25-2.5.4_3.tbz: File unavailable (e.g., file not found, no access)
** The command returned a non-zero exit status: 1
** Failed to fetch ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-7.2-release/All/python25-2.5.4_3.tbz
fetch: ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-7.2-release/All/python25-2.5.4_3.tgz: File unavailable (e.g., file not found, no access)
** The command returned a non-zero exit status: 1
** Failed to fetch ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-7.2-release/All/python25-2.5.4_3.tgz
** Failed to fetch python25-2.5.4_3
** Listing the failed packages (-:ignored / *:skipped / !:failed)
        ! python25-2.5.4_3      (fetch error)
--->  Fetching the latest package(s) for 'python25' (lang/python25)
--->  Fetching python25
fetch: ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-7.2-release/Latest/python25.tbz: Protocol error
** The command returned a non-zero exit status: 1

        ! python25@     (fetch error)
** Could not find the latest version (2.5.4_3)
** No package available: lang/python25

It then goes on to the next package. It only got about 10% of the ports.

Am I missing something obvious here?
