Hi all,
While trying to update ports for FreeBSD 6.1-STABLE using this command:
/usr/local/sbin/portsdb -Uu
I got the following error (please see below for the process leading up
to this):

Before reporting this error, verify that you are running a supported
version of FreeBSD (see http://www.FreeBSD.org/ports/) and that you
have a complete and up-to-date ports collection. (INDEX builds are
not supported with partial or out-of-date ports collections -- in
particular, if you are using cvsup, you must cvsup the "ports-all"
collection, and have no "refuse" files.) If that is the case, then
report the failure to [EMAIL PROTECTED] together with relevant
details of your ports configuration (including FreeBSD version,
your architecture, your environment, and your /etc/make.conf
settings, especially compiler flags and WITH/WITHOUT settings).
Note: the latest pre-generated version of INDEX may be fetched
automatically with "make fetchindex".

failed to generate INDEX!
portsdb: index generation error
Process:
cd /usr/ports/net/cvsup
make install clean
(reboot)
cp /usr/share/examples/cvsup/ports-supfile /root/
I then edited /root/ports-supfile and added the host:
*default host=cvsup12.FreeBSD.org
At first, I commented out all the ports for languages I don't
understand such as Russian, Japanese, etc. But I got a similar error,
so I commented out all the individual ports and uncommented ports-all
to do a complete job of it. That's when I ran portsdb -Uu and got the
above error.
This is my first time doing this, so I'm sure I've missed something
somewhere.

Instead of regenerating the INDEX, why not just download it?
# cd /usr/ports
# make fetchindex
