port selfupdate not working Yosemite 10.10.5

[Mr. Michael Wilson]

I had not updated my ports in a while and when I tried I got this with sudo port -v selfupdate...

I also wasn’t able to uninstall via the cmd line so I pulled macports out of the var folder and reinstalled with a dmg of the current version of macports. When I went to run the code again, I got the same message. I have checked all of the folder permissions and they seem fine. Any thoughts?
