I noticed in /opt/local/var/macports/sources there are 2 directories:
rsync.macports.org [empty]
sea.us.rsync.macports.org
and the sync ended with an error:
"Error: Couldn't sync the ports tree: Synchronization of 1 source(s) failed"
Also when using the port command, for example:
localhost:macports marbre$ port search emacs
Warning: Can't open index file for source: rsync://rsync.macports.org/release/tarballs/ports.tar

[list continues]
Obviously this is do to the empty source directory 'rsync.macports.org'. How do I suppress these messages and when the main url is up again, what should I continue to use the mirror? If not, then how do I migrate to the main source?
