Folks,
I'm running MacPorts directly from the git repository, using macOS
10.7.5. Today, I've done my usual incantation
git fetch upstream && git merge upstream/master && git push
port -d sync
Calling
port outdated
gives the expected output:
The following installed ports are outdated:
bison 3.7.4_0 < 3.7.5_0
bison-runtime 3.7.4_0 < 3.7.5_0
cctools 927.0.2_7 < 949.0.1_0
cmake 3.19.3_0 < 3.19.4_0
gcc8 8.4.0_2 < 8.4.0_3
gcc9 9.3.0_4 < 9.3.0_5
gd2 2.3.0_0 < 2.3.1_0
ghostscript 9.53.3_0 < 9.53.3_1
graphviz 2.40.1_3 < 2.40.1_4
libgcrypt 1.9.0_1 < 1.9.1_0
libmacho-headers 927.0.2_0 < 949.0.1_0
lilypond-devel 2.21.82_0 < 2.23.0_0
mc 4.8.25_1 < 4.8.26_0
meson 0.55.3_1 < 0.56.2_0
ncurses 6.2_0 < 6.2_1
p5.28-io-socket-ssl 2.68.0_0 < 2.69.0_0
p5.28-role-tiny 2.2.3_0 < 2.2.4_0
poppler 20.12.1_0 < 20.12.1_1
However, calling
sudo port -pb install outdated
yields errors that I haven't seen before:

Just to be sure, I've deleted the `PortIndex` files, then regenerated
with them with `port -d sync`, but the errors persist. I've also
updated MacPorts itself to the latest git version, with no difference.
What's the right solution to this?
A few days ago, everything was OK...

PS: The mailing list archive at
https://lists.macports.org/pipermail/macports-users/
is rather useless; it neither provides a search function, nor does
it display the dates for messages within the monthly views. What
I expect is something like this:
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-devel/
It would be great if those features could be activated.
