 Having removed ports using the instructions at
 http://trac.macosforge.org/projects/macports/wiki/FAQ#HowdoIremoveoruninstallMacPorts,
 I tried installing from the MacPorts-1.6.0 pkg and it failed with the
 following message:

 The following install step failed: run postflight script for
 MacPorts-1.6.0.

 I am using Leopard.

 The install log also revealed the following errors just before the final
 error above:

 rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (314109 bytes received so far)
 [generator]
 Error: /opt/local/bin/port: port selfupdate failed: Couldn't sync the
 ports tree: Synchronization the local ports tree failed d
 oing rsync

 Is there a workaround to this problem or do I have to wait until 1.6.1?
