Comment:

 Glad it worked.  When I say "old version of port" what I mean is one that
 pre-dates using sqlite for keeping the database.  I only updated mine with
 1.9.0 to that version; IIRC, you have to completely reinstall from
 scratch.  From "${prefix}/etc/macports/macports.conf":
 {{{
 # Type of storage to use for the port registry information, "flat" or
 "sqlite"
 # default is sqlite, flat is legacy
 #portdbformat           sqlite
 }}}
 Before I upgraded this was set to "flat" which was good for the time; now
 I use "sqlite" which is -so- much better.  I think there's a wiki-page
 about doing this upgrade.
