One or more of your receipts is missing or malformed, but if it's missing, its parent directory is still present. If you delete /opt/local/var/macports/receipts/perl5.8/5.8.8_0, the registry error should go away, but all of that port's files will be orphaned. This means you'll have to force activate the first new version you install. - Josh _______________________________________________ macports-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/macports-users
