I tried to install "factor" (required by some other package), and got the following with "port upgrade outdated":

(GQ fails to build for reasons which I have yet to address)

Is this something that I can easily fix?

Hmmm...  Late news before sending this to the list:

    Daves-MacBook-Pro:~ dave$ cd /Applications/MacPorts
    Daves-MacBook-Pro:MacPorts dave$ ls
    AquaTerm.app
    Daves-MacBook-Pro:MacPorts dave$

Fascninating, as Mr Spock would say...  Looks like I have to reinstall
MacPorts from scratch?  Yes, I installed AquaTerm a couple of days ago
so "gnuplot" would work; looks like I somehow Trashed MacPorts.
