Hi:

I’m a port maintainer…but I’m having a user problem.  For some weeks now, ‘sudo 
port selfupdate’ has not been properly updating my local ports tree(s) on my 
main Mac.  About 2 weeks ago, I was going to post a question about this but 
then I ran ‘sudo port -d selfupdate’ and it seemed that all the missed updates 
were now caught up.  I put it down to gremlins in the ether but then I noticed 
recently that I had no outdated ports when I knew that there should be several. 
 I tried ’sudo port -d sync’ with the same result, ie no updates.

Obviously, ’sudo port selfupdate’ has worked flawlessly for me for quite a few 
years.  TTBOMK, I haven’t changed anything relevant on my side.  I’m overdue to 
update my OS version (I’m on 10.15.7).  

I’ve pasted the debug log from ’sudo port -d sync’ in case that shows something 
useful:

BTW, I have another older Mac that also has MacPorts installed.  ’sudo port 
selfupdate’ continues to work as expected on that machine.

Suggestions on what’s wrong and how to fix it?

Thanks,

Craig
