Comment:

 If this happens all the time, then you have a problem with your network.
 Perhaps you network blocks rsync traffic. If so, investigate alternate
 means of syncing your ports tree, including using Subversion or a daily
 tarball. These methods are described in our wiki. If you need further help
 please write to the macports-users mailing list.
