#47353: Can't update ports after upgrade to 2.3.3

---------------------------------+--------------------------------
 I have had MacPorts running successfully on this 10.7.5 box.  I primarily
 use it for MRTG, and haven't updated in quite a while.

 Yesterday, I ran the selfupdate and upgrade to 2.3.3 (not sure, of the
 previous version, but likely 2.2.?, or maybe older.)  The update was
 successful, but when I ran 'sudo port upgrade outdated' I received an
 error:

 ''Error: Unable to execute port: couldn't open
 "/opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_tarballs_ports_devel_gettext/gettext/work/.macports.gettext.state":
 permission denied''

 I have searched for related issues and tried similar fixes, as well as
 trying to reinstall 2.3.3 over top of itself.  I also looked for the
 "/opt/local/var/macports..." directory but it doesn't exist.  Apparently
 something significant has changed from my older version.

 Any help or guidance to repair would be greatly appreciated.  I can still
 start MRTG, etc., but can't upgrade the ports.
