 If rclone cannot be updated on this macOS, WHY **port** says it is
 outdated and tries to update it?

 {{{
 sudo port outdated
 The following installed ports are outdated:
 OpenBLAS                       0.3.33_1 < 0.3.34_0
 rclone                         1.73.0_0 < 1.75.0_1
 }}}

 This causes each time


 {{{
 sudo port upgrade outdated
 }}}

 to fail...


 If rclone cannot be updated on this macOS, port should skip it. WHY NOT?
