Comment(by alangrow+macports@…):

 Gee that was helpful. You're probably tired of repeating yourself, so let
 me do it for you, for anyone else who stumbles over this ticket:

   ...existing installs will need their macports.conf edited in order to
 use it, by changing 'portdbformat flat' to 'portdbformat sqlite'. After
 making this change, your existing flat receipts will be converted the
 first time you run port(1) with sufficient privileges (this usually means
 using sudo; e.g. 'sudo port installed').
