Ports updated without maintainer notification?

> OSL in particular appears to be a problem on my machine. I've copied the newer version of the portfile directly to my local machine, and tried to build it, but it's failing to build because osl is indirectly dependent on opencolorio (by way of openimageio), and apparently there's a new problem with either opencolorio or openimageio:

Did you also update all the other outdated ports on your ‘local’ machine, or did you just cherry-pick the updated osl from the current master ? 

If so it is really not a good idea to do that, as it means, as appears above, you could get an updated binary tarball install that was built against another updated port you do not have.

You should *always* keep all your ports updated and consistent.

if you run

> sudo port -d sync
> sudo port update outdated

does that help >

Just finally to note, there is nothing wrong with the current osl builds, they are available (apart from arm) down to 10.9

I started updating some of the portfiles for which I'm the maintainer, and then I noticed that the portfiles seem to have already been updated in git. However, I can't find any PRs for such an update, and I was never notified that the ports for which I'm the maintainer was getting updated... usually, if someone submits a PR for a portfile for which I'm the maintainer, I get a notification through GitHub.
