self update failed

[Giovanni Azua]

Hello,

[sorry for the possible double post, sent it from the wrong address before]

I get the following error while running "sudo port -d selfupdate". What is this GNUSTEP_SYSTEM_ROOT? how come I was never asked for this before?

Many TIA,
Best regards,
Giovanni
