I have the same problem.


The fix is to put the following into /usr/local/etc/pkgtools.conf:

   ENV['PORTS_DBDRIVER'] = 'bdb1_hash'

Then do:

   portsdb -fu
   pkgdb -fu

How, they wonder, did so many [American] conservatives, who
normally don't trust their government to run a public school down
the street, come to believe that federal bureaucrats could
transform an entire nation in the alien culture of the Middle East?
