Here is what I have:
vk at localhost(16:21:34)> sudo port selfupdate
DarwinPorts base version 1.442 installed
Downloaded MacPorts base version 1.442
The MacPorts installation is not outdated and so was not updated
selfupdate done!
And here is result of port -d outdated:
vk at localhost(21:31:10)> sudo port -d outdated
DEBUG: list must have an even number of elements
while executing
