Hi, <br>Has anyone seen such error? Can someone please help me solve the error? <br><br>When
trying selfupdate or install a port, I got error stated in subject.&nbsp; I
have checked mailing lists and googled for the error but I couldn&#39;t
find any similar incident.
<br><br>This happend on 1.4.0, so I have wiped the installation as shown in <a href="http://trac.macosforge.org/projects/macports/wiki/FAQ#HowdoIremoveoruninstallMacPorts" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)">

</a>. Then installed 1.5.0 from source. The error still occurs and I cannot selfupdate nor install any ports.<br><br>If you require any other information, please let me know. <br><br>= Here is output of the selfupdate<br>
