The -f and -s options don't do anything useful for selfupdate, so don't use them. The -d option implies -v, so you only need to use one or the other (or neither) depending on how much information you want to see.

What happens if you first clean the three ports whose work symlinks are mentioned?

(And BTW, you no longer need to cc yourself on tickets you report.)

Solves the problem. Thanks and please close this ticket.

Was there something unusual about those links? If you're unable to sync whenever there are work directories present, that's a genuine bug.
