Please remember to preview Oh, I will. That's good. Did not know that it is possible. Thanks for telling me!

resolution set to duplicate Unfortunately, #16334 does not seem to be resolved, it does not give a solution.

And: I do not see how #16334 and #24656 are duplicates. Moreover, #16334 is there for 15 months? Seems to be impossible to solve? Why did you switch this to "closed", the problem remains. . . . I have just tried again - it still exits with error 1: {{{ bash-3.2# port selfupdate ---> Updating the ports tree ---> Updating MacPorts base sources using rsync MacPorts base version 1.8.2 installed, MacPorts base version 1.8.2 downloaded. ---> MacPorts base is already the latest version The ports tree has been updated.
