I have my own little shell script that does (amongst other things)sudo port -v selfupdate sudo port outdated #sudo port upgrade outdated #sudo port uninstall -f inactive echo All DoneThe commented lines are because a few versions of Macports ago, if you triedsudo port upgrade outdatedand "outdated" was nothing, ie nothing needed upgrading, then there was a very confusing error message.But I've just tried it in 1.8.1 and although it could be slightly better it's not as bad as it once was.iMac:~ $ sudo port upgrade outdated Error: No ports matched the given expression"There are no upgrades available in MacPorts for your installed ports."is perhaps a clearer message for users in this case.
This happens because the expansion of commands is done right to left. We don't know that we're upgrading until after we've tried to match "outdated."
