Ran my usual maintenance script which ends up with portversion -l "<" and, if needed, portupgrade -arR and portsclean -DP. It showed portupgrade needed upgrading again from 2.0.0,1 to 2.0.1,1 & upgraded it. Afterward, I had a couple of stale dependencies, but not related to portupgrade. Fixed them. Ran portversion again and, though it wasn't needed, portupgrade, both with no problems. Since, at that point, nothing needed upgrading, I still can't say for sure if the same problem described originally, exists or not on my system, but I'm sure within a couple of days, something will need upgrading. If portupgrade screws up, I'll reply to this thread again. BTW, running FreeBSD_5_4 on an old HP Netserver. I didn't see in this thread what version of FreeBSD the problem was happening on. Wondering if it'd help on the system in question to run portsdb -uUF and pkgdb -fu and try portversion and portupgrade again. Hope some of this helps.
