Hello.
I know portupgrade is somewhat deprecated, but...

On several boxes I get the following:
> # portsdb -U
> Updating the ports index ... Generating INDEX.tmp - please wait.. Done.
> portsdb: can't convert nil into String

Is there any way I can debug this?

The boxes are 7.4/8.2 i386/amd64 with different versions of ruby and bdb 
backend.

Maybe some port has some invalid value and I might just exclude it as a 
temporary fix... but which one is it?

  bye & Thanks
	av.
