Can't update ports after upgrade to 2.3.3 — at Initial Version

Description

I have had MacPorts running successfully on this 10.7.5 box. I primarily use it for MRTG, and haven't updated in quite a while.

Yesterday, I ran the selfupdate and upgrade to 2.3.3 (not sure, of the previous version, but likely 2.2.?, or maybe older.) The update was successful, but when I ran 'sudo port upgrade outdated' I received an error:

Error: Unable to execute port: couldn't open "/opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_tarballs_ports_devel_gettext/gettext/work/.macports.gettext.state": permission denied

I have searched for related issues and tried similar fixes, as well as trying to reinstall 2.3.3 over top of itself. I also looked for the "/opt/local/var/macports..." directory but it doesn't exist. Apparently something significant has changed from my older version.

Any help or guidance to repair would be greatly appreciated. I can still start MRTG, etc., but can't upgrade the ports.
