I think you are on the right track, I had a working stable portupgrade/portsdb environment and after the last update I started getting that as well...my options for portupgrade to use BDB4 were unchanged from before through after the upgrade: WITH_BDB4 was true for both cases. If I recompile portupgrade with: WITHOUT_BDB4=true WITH_BDB1=true which also requires me to pkg_delete ruby-bdb, then it all seems to work just fine with no more warnings or errors. After a bit more trial and error, I find I can replicate the problem by performing the following: # portinstall databases/ruby-bdb # portversion -l'<' -v [missing key: categories] [Updating the portsdb <format:bdb_btree> in /usr/ports ... - 16414 port entries found ......... 1000.........2000.........3000.........4000.........5000.........6000... ...... 7000.........8000.........9000.........10000.........11000.........12000 .........13000.........14000.........15000.........16000.... ..... done] missing key: categories: Cannot read the portsdb! [...snip...] # portversion -l'<' -v [missing key: categories] [Updating the portsdb <format:bdb_btree> in /usr/ports ... - 16414 port entries found ......... 1000.........2000.........3000.........4000.........5000.........6000... ...... 7000.........8000.........9000.........10000.........11000.........12000 .........13000.........14000.........15000.........16000.... ..... done] missing key: categories: Cannot read the portsdb! and then I can remove any visible problems by performing: # pkg_delete ruby18-bdb-0.5.9_2 # portversion -l'<' -v [Updating the pkgdb <format:bdb1_btree> in /var/db/pkg ... Failed `Inappropriate file type or format'; rebuild needed] [Rebuilding the pkgdb <format:bdb1_btree> in /var/db/pkg ... - 428 packages found (-0 +428) .................................................................. ........................................................................ ........................................................................ ........................................................................ ........................................................................ ........................................................................ .. done] [Failed `Inappropriate file type or format'] [Updating the portsdb <format:bdb1_btree> in /usr/ports ... - 16414 port entries found ......... 1000.........2000.........3000.........4000.........5000.........6000... ...... 7000.........8000.........9000.........10000.........11000.........12000 .........13000.........14000.........15000.........16000.... ..... done] [...snip...] # portversion -l'<' -v [...snip...] -philip
