      #40652: After selfupdate the list command fails
-------------------------------+--------------------------------
 Reporter:  feliks.kluzniak@…  |      Owner:  macports-tickets@…
     Type:  defect             |     Status:  new
 Priority:  Normal             |  Milestone:
Component:  base               |    Version:  2.2.0
 Keywords:                     |       Port:
-------------------------------+--------------------------------
 After today's "selfupdate" the basic "port" file has not changed, but
 apparently something got corrupted.  Everything else seems to work well,
 but the command "list" gives an error, as show below. (Repeating
 selfupdate went without a hitch, but the problem persists.)

 If this is only on my machine, I'd appreciate a hint: How can I recover
 without reinstalling everything?
