Hi Matthew, Another workaround is simply to set: PORTS_DBDRIVER=bdb1_hash in your environment, and then use portsdb and portupgrade as usual. May I bluntly - yet politely - ask why you would prefer this workaround as opposed to replacing `portsdb -Uu` with `portindex && portindexdb`

Hello Mattthew, This is not a moot point. I've been struggling with this problem since this morning. The problem would just not go away. After I cvsup the ports, I use "make index" and then portversion -rRvc. I also run script whenever I cvsup, portupgrade, or install a new port. On 090104 I c
