Until just recently "make index" was broken and the only choice was using -uU. There was a ~2 day band where "make index" was really broken. For some time now, the only way to get a full list of ports is to do a "make index" from /usr/ports. You make get a duplicate port message but it works. The -U options fills screens with messages as it encounters ports that it can't deal with. Since I rebuild INDEX and INDEX.db everytime I cvsup ports-all, I added ports/INDEX to my ports-all refuse file. This saves several minutes using my local cvs-mirror. If you retransfer INDEX from an external mirror, it has to be much longer.
