 This ticket is about selfupdate failure. #49224 is about sync failure.
 They're both caused by the same server problem, and it affects all users
 that use the rsync server, which MacPorts does by default, so this affects
 most MacPorts users.

 If your sources.conf lists
 rsync://rsync.macports.org/release/tarballs/ports.tar then sync will
 finish without error, but you will not actually receive any updates newer
 than the time the server broke. If your sources.conf lists
 rsync://rsync.macports.org/release/ports/ then sync will fail and display
 errors.

 > So what I need to do?

 Wait until the administrator fixes the rsync server, or configure MacPorts
 to [wiki:howto/SyncingWithSVN sync using svn] instead.
