Do CC replies to me: I'm not on this list.
Just ran `cvsup /etc/cvsupfile && portsdb -Uu` and got the complaint
below. I'm guessing that something in ports is currently broken.
Trying again after removing the gstreamer-plugins-a52dec directory: looks
like I have to remove another one now. Ok. I'll try deleting all the
audio/gstreamer-plugins-* directories and see how that goes.
Damn: also have to delete the devel/gstreamer-plugins-* stuff, and in
graphics/ also (tiresome: `portsdb -Uu` takes ages). Oh God. It's in
multimedia too, and in net, www, sysutils, x11-toolkits.
So I've deleted
{audio,devel,graphics,multimedia,net,www,sysutils,x11-toolkits}/gstreamer-plugins-*
in /usr/ports to get portsdb to run.
Now it reports:
Updating the ports index ... Generating INDEX.tmp - please wait..Unknown modifier 'O'
Unknown modifier 'O'
gnome2-2.16.1_2: "/usr/ports/multimedia/gstreamer-plugins-core"
non-existent -- dependency list incomplete
===> x11/gnome2 failed
Damn. I give up. If gnome2 depends on a broken port then I haven't got a
chance!
Here are my vital statistics, as requested in the original error report,
below.

********************************************************************
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not supported with partial or out-of-date ports collections -- in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".
