ports that are outdated but cannot be upgraded.

[Kenneth Wolcott]

Just successfully completed a selfupdate and the re-install of:

port -n upgrade --enforce-variants openssl3 +universal

Now what remains is what follows:

port outdated
The following installed ports are outdated:
libtorrent-rasterbar           2.0.8_0 < 2.0.8_1
py39-pep517                    0.13.0_0 < 0.13.0_1
py310-pep517                   0.13.0_0 < 0.13.0_1
py311-pep517                   0.13.0_0 < 0.13.0_1

So:

sudo port install libtorrent-rasterbar

I know that this will fail (tried it before), but to document the
failure, here goes:

for details.

Error: Follow https://guide.macports.org/#project.tickets if you

So, I'll file a bug for this part.

Now what about the other three ports?

Why are these ports still on my outdated list if they have been replaced?

You can always run 'port rev-upgrade' again to fix errors.
The following ports will be rebuilt: libtorrent-rasterbar @2.0.8+python311
Continue? [Y/n]: n

Perhaps I should remove these ports?

I'll try that.

No, that's NOT a good idea :-(

sudo port -v uninstall py39-pep517 py310-pep517 py311-pep517
Note: It is not recommended to uninstall/deactivate a port that has
dependents as it breaks the dependents.
The following ports will break: py39-build @0.9.0_0

So I guess I'll write up a bug for this as well.
