error upgrading outdated port

[Peter Trudelle]

Oh ye MacPorts gods, hear my plea! ;)

I'm suddenly getting errors upgading/installing ports, e.g.:

MiniMac:~ peter$ sudo port -upc upgrade gettext
--->  Computing dependencies for gettext
--->  Fetching archive for gettext
--->  Attempting to fetch gettext-0.18.3_0.darwin_10.i386.tbz2 from
http://packages.macports.org/gettext
--->  Attempting to fetch gettext-0.18.3_0.darwin_10.i386.tbz2 from
http://mse.uk.packages.macports.org/sites/packages.macports.org/gettext
--->  Attempting to fetch gettext-0.18.3_0.darwin_10.i386.tbz2 from

--->  Fetching distfiles for gettext
--->  Attempting to fetch gettext-0.18.3.tar.gz from
http://distfiles.macports.org/gettext
--->  Verifying checksums for gettext
--->  Extracting gettext
Error: org.macports.extract for port gettext returned: command execution
failed
Please see the log file for port gettext for details:

/opt/local/var/macports/logs/_Volumes_Slab_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_tarballs_ports_devel_gettext/gettext/main.log
Error: Unable to upgrade port: 1

I'm attaching the port log.  I've done selfupdate and port clean --all
outdated, then retried, with same results.  This is on a 10.6.8 system.

Any pointers much appreciated. I'm prepared to nuke /opt and start over if
nothing seems obvious.

thanks,

Peter
