 I recently installed youtube-dl based on a macport installation that
 hasn't been updated in a while. It completed successfully. I then went to
 do a selfupdate and the corresponding 'sudo port upgrade outdated' command
 which failed when it attempted to download a version of svt-av1 that
 apparently doesn't exist on many servers. It  eventually gave up and
 failed.

 While data is in the log I'm attaching, basic info is this: \\
 MacPorts 2.8.1 \\
 OS: OS X 10.6.8

Comment:

 Yes, I noticed this today. svt-av1 is hosted on GitLab. GitLab changed
 their SSL certificate a couple days ago and it is now no longer possible
 to connect to GitLab using the version of curl that comes with OS X 10.11
 or earlier. This shouldn't have been a problem for users because we mirror
 the files on our server, so you should have been able to get it from our
 mirrors, but the machine that does the mirroring runs OS X 10.11 so it is
 not able to mirror this file or any other files from GitLab anymore.
 Upgrading the mirroring machine to a new OS version has the potential to
 introduce more problems so I plan to fix the problem with a smaller
 change: changing the MacPorts installation that the mirroring process uses
 so that it uses MacPorts curl instead of macOS curl, since MacPorts curl
 uses a newer SSL library that is able to connect to all servers.
