What all is in /opt/local/var/db/dports/sources? As you said below, you may
have old directories there that should be removed.

It would be in sources.conf. What do you have in sources.conf?

What do you use instead? svn?

Possibly, and also possibly an old version of the extension; we should make
sure you're building the current version of the extension.

You can do that if you like. But we may be able to repair your registry,
depending on how it's damaged. To know how it's damaged, we need to be able to
SELECT from it. To be able to SELECT from it, we need to load the MacPorts
SQLite extension.
