	I am really curious how you got that particular setting for the 
rsync_dir, do you happen to remember? That rsync repo (the value of 
rsync_dir) is fed with MacPorts sources from svn's trunk at the server 
level, and those sources currently correspond to the still unreleased 
1.5 version of MacPorts (more than still unreleased actually, 
practically not even fully planned out).

	And I say I am really curious because the ports.conf file does not 
ship that value by default, not in trunk and not in any release branch 
we've ever created, so it must have been a hand edit. Other than 
that.... I am really curious!

	In any case, to get back to a released version of MacPorts all you 
have to do is change its current value to "dpupdate1/base/" (note the 
1) and force a selfupdate run. Tell us your results (you might end up 
with stray sources 
/opt/local/var/db/dports/sources/rsync.rsync.darwinports.org_dpupdate, 
once you make sure you're back at 1.4.0 you can freely remove that 
directory).
