sudo port selfupdate fails

[Johannes Ruscheinski]

Hi,

Here is what I get when I run "sudo port -d selfupdate":

Obligatory current favourite quotes:

"We are all atheists about most of the gods that societies have ever
believed in. Some of us just go one god further."
--Richard Dawkins

"Religion is regarded by the common people as true, by the wise as
false, and by the rulers as useful".
 -- Seneca
"I have more confidence in the methods of science, based on the amazing
record of science and its ability over the centuries to answer
unanswerable questions, than I do in the methods of faith (what are they?)."
 -- David J. Gross "Physics Nobel Laureate"

"Atheism is a religion to the same extent that not collecting stamps is a
 hobby."
