 Hello. I successfully installed macports on my computer (Mac OS X
 10.10.4), but when I run the self update I get an error.  I then ran:

 {{{
 $ sudo port -d selfupdate
 }}}

 and got the following:

 {{{

 I saw something similar to this on another ticket, but I couldn't figure
 out the solution. Could someone help?  Overall, I need to use macports to
 install ATLAS 3.10.2, so any suggestions on doing that would be great too.

Comment:

 Duplicate of #49233.

 The available solution for updating MacPorts sources today is to
 [wiki:howto/SyncingWithSVN syn with svn] instead of rsync. The available
 solution for updating MacPorts base (if you are running a version earlier
 than 2.3.4) is to download and run [https://www.macports.org/install.php
 the installer from our web site].
