+== selfupdate fails and/or `port` command is killed by OS after using selfupdate ==
+
+If you are running MacPorts 2.11.x and selfupdate fails:
+
+{{{
+$ sudo port selfupdate
+--->  Checking for newer releases of MacPorts
+MacPorts base version 2.11.0 installed,
+MacPorts base version 2.11.1 available.
+--->  MacPorts base is outdated, installing new version 2.11.1
+--->  Attempting to fetch MacPorts 2.11.1 source code from https://github.com/macports/macports-base/releases/download/v2.11.1/MacPorts-2.11.1.tar.bz2
+--->  Extracting MacPorts 2.11.1                                                     
+--->  Installing new MacPorts release in /opt/local as root:wheel; permissions 0755
+Error: Error installing new MacPorts base: command execution failed
+}}}
+
+and/or if the `port` command then no longer works and is killed by the OS:
+
+{{{
+$ port
+Killed
+}}}
+
+Try running:
+
+{{{
+cp -c /opt/local/libexec/macports/bin/tclsh8.6 /tmp
+}}}
+
+Then try using the `port` command again.
+
+If that doesn't work, try:
+
+{{{
+sudo /usr/sbin/purge
+}}}
+
+Report your findings in #72689.
