All mirrors have all of the port definitions; they just copy them from our
primary public server. Also, rsync.macports.org is our primary public server,
not a mirror.
Your output still does not show the portindex being fetched or generated, and I
don't know why that would happen. In fact selfupdate appears to be exiting
entirely, before printing the output that should always be printed at the end,
as I showed before:

The question is, where is it exiting? Ok, it fetched ports.tar. Did it verify
it? Did it extract it? Can you selfupdate again but use the -d flag instead of
-v to get more detailed information?
Have you customized your sources.conf file? If so, what does it contain?
Has this ever worked? If so, when, and what changed since then?
