Tried a "sudo port upgrade -R outdated" just now, and it promptly  
errored and quit ... so what's supposed to happen with -R option? But  
the new version is active so it upgraded OK. I've always just done  
"sudo port upgrade outdated" up til now.


Downloaded MacPorts base version 1.600

The MacPorts installation is not outdated and so was not updated
selfupdate done!
The following installed ports are outdated:
sqlite3                        3.6.6.1_0 < 3.6.6.2_0
All Done
