problem with fresh MacPorts install on 10.13

[Chris Jones]

Hi,

( Please keep your replies on list )

port sync is what fetches in updates from the main repository. If you 
don't run this you will never get any port updates, so you should get 
into the habit of doing it periodically, then running `sudo port upgrade 
outdated` to actually update your installed ports.
