 I downloaded the MacPorts: 3.2.2 on my Mac OS X 10.6.8
 I also updated my XCode 3.2.2

 After installation I ran the command sudo port -d selfupdate:

 this is the result:
 {{{

Comment:

 Please remember to use WikiFormatting and to preview your post. Setting
 priority to high is reserved for MacPorts developers, so please don't do
 that.

 The sync works fine for me, so it's not a server issue. This makes your
 ticket a FAQ, see wiki:FAQ#selfupdatefails.
