MacPorts Fail to Install Package/Port

[Gundala Viswanath]

Hi Rainer,

Even my 'selfupdate' has problem:

gundalas-macbook-pro:~ ewijaya$ sudo port selfupdate
Error: Synchronization of the local ports tree failed doing rsync
Error: /opt/local/bin/port: port selfupdate failed: Couldn't sync the
ports tree: Synchronization of 1 source(s) failed


Is there a way I can solve this?
