Upgraded to Mavericks and now I can't update MacPorts

[Patrick Burton]

Hello,

I updated to Mavericks and also updated Xcode but I can’t seem to be able to update macports. I get the following error:

$ port -v selfupdate
--->  Updating MacPorts base sources using rsync

To report a bug, follow the instructions in the guide:
    http://guide.macports.org/#project.tickets
Error: /opt/local/bin/port: port selfupdate failed: can't create directory "/opt/local/var/macports/sources/rsync.macports.org/release/tarballs/tmp": permission denied

Any ideas?
