There appears to be a problem with the autoconf port.

After doing portsnap fetch update, portversion says the following:
bsd00# portversion -vl "<"
[Updating the portsdb <format:bdb_btree> in /usr/ports ... - 19039 port entries found .........1000.........2000.........3000.........4000.........5000.........6000.........7000.........8000.........9000.........10000.........11000.........12000.........13000.........14000.........15000.........16000.........17000.........18000.........19000 ..... done] autoconf < needs updating (port has 2.62) (=> 'devel/autoconf262')

Trying to upgrade autoconf, I get the following:
bsd00# portupgrade -bvpp autoconf
--->  Session started at: Wed, 27 Aug 2008 08:36:38 +0000
** Port directory not found: devel/autoconf261
--->  Listing the results (+:done / -:ignored / *:skipped / !:failed)
        - devel/autoconf261 (port directory error)

--->  Session ended at: Wed, 27 Aug 2008 08:36:38 +0000 (consumed 00:00:00)


There is no mention in /usr/ports/UPDATING of the change in directory apparent from the above output, and it seems there is a discrepency in the INDEX downloaded by portsnap and the output of make search name=autoconf

INDEX:
autoconf-2.61|/usr/ports/devel/autoconf261|/usr/local|Automatically configure source code on many Un*x platforms (2.61)|/usr/ports/devel/autoconf261/pkg-descr|[EMAIL PROTECTED]|devel|expat-2.0.0_1 gettext-0.14.5_2 gmake-3.81_1 help2man-1.36.4_1 ldconfig_compat-1.0_8 libiconv-1.9.2_2 m4-1.4.8_1 p5-gettext-1.05_1 rc_subr-1.31_1|m4-1.4.8_1|http://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/|||

I would really appreciate it if someone can point me in the right direction.

Thanks,
Nicki
