But that was when I was logged in remotely via ssh. The update worked
when I logged in directly, and the port commands now work remotely as well.

Hi,
I am also getting a failure of selfupdate when going from 2.11.0 to 2.11.1
Self update starts OK, and goes through most of the build but fails at

<https://guide.macports.org/#project.tickets> if you believe
there is a bug.

Does anyone else get the same issue on selfupdate ?

I normally don’t have any issues with Macports but with the new
release I’m receiving this error after Macports told me to run port -v
selfupdate. Is the “permission denied” error an issue?
