    I have been having a problem with portugrade for a couple of weeks. I get the
    following error when trying to update ports. I have updated ports, deleted
    the entire /usr/ports/ dir, rm -f pkgdb and /usr/ports/ INDEX file. Did not
    see any other possible soulutions. Can someone point me in the right
    direction. Would like to have updated ports.
    Thanks Dantavious
