Hi all

As part of the daily portupgrade run on my 6-STABLE box, I upgraded
sysutils/portupgrade to version 2.2.2_1,2 yesterday. Today, when I tried
running this version, I got the following error message:

%portupgrade -ai

Apparently, the portsdb database is corrupted somehow, gets rebuilt but
is still not acceptable. According to the error message, a key named
"categories" seems to be missing from some table. Has anyone else
experience this? Is there a workaround or a fix?


I too am having the same issue, though I had thought it was because I
accidentily interrupted (Ctrl-C) portsdb from updating. However, even when
running 'portsdb -FUu', or even removing all of /usr/ports and retrieving
the tree again I still see the same error:
