list element in braces followed by "}" instead of space

[Darren Weber]

I've also run this debug command:

[ dweber at elegans ~/ports ]$ port -d installed
DEBUG: list element in braces followed by "}" instead of space
    while executing
"array set receipt_$ref $receipt_contents"
    (procedure "receipt_flat::open_entry" line 84)
    invoked from within
"${macports::registry.format}::open_entry $name $version $revision $variants"
    (procedure "open_entry" line 4)
    invoked from within
"open_entry $iname $iversion $irevision $ivariants"
    (procedure "registry::installed" line 13)
    invoked from within
"registry::installed"
Error: port installed failed: list element in braces followed by "}"
instead of space
No ports are installed.
