I have encountered two issues when attempting to update Macports it self before being able to update my ports. sudo self update produces an error
error renaming "/opt/local/var/macports/sources/rsync.macports.org/release/tarballs/tmp/base": no such file or directory error renaming "/opt/local/var/macports/sources/rsync.macports.org/release/tarballs/tmp/base" : no such file or directory If I then create this directory by hand as it's the 'base' directory that is missing, it leads to the next issue which is arning: No version file found, please rerun selfupdate. warning: No version file found, please rerun selfupdate. Short of uninstalling Macports and and all my associated ports, how do I get past this issue ? My current version of macports is 2.5.3 I am on a MBP mid 2012 running 10.11.6 (Yes I know it's old and should be updated but I still need the Apple Pro apps) Regards Gus Denton
