Comment (by barracuda156):

 Replying to [comment:3 ryandesign]:
 > There never has been and never will be a file
 PortIndex_darwin_10_powerpc on the server because Apple never released
 that OS for that processor.

 > Failure to get a PortIndex from the server should not be a problem.
 MacPorts should generate or update the PortIndex locally.

 > What error do you get on Tiger?

 Yes, of course there is no 10.6 ppc index. What problem I face now is that
 ports do not get actually synced at all from Macports servers. Data is
 downloaded, sync does not happen: old ports are still there. Same on
 Tiger.
 There is no specific error, they just do not sync with remote ones. Local
 ports are synced, as usual.
