In doing a selfupdate followed by an upgrade outdated, I got this:

While asking about installing dependencies is a good thing in general, in
this case the dependencies were already installed (which is probably
almost always the case with "upgrade outdated").

In this case, the "upgrade" of the dependencies wasn't even due to new
versions - it was just a change in the "universal" variants.  Although
asking before switching variants might make sense, in that case it should
be more informative about what it's actually proposing to change.
