port selfupdate fails with group error.

[abhishek.dwaraki@…]

Ports update fails on my MacBook. I do a sudo ./port -d selfupdate after I successfully installed DarwinPorts on my MacBook Pro. I am running the latest version of OS X. I am trying to install qt3-mac which is also having problems. But not too sure what is the cause.

Regards, Abhishek.
