It used to report the delta, ie the new, the changed and the
deleted files. Now it seems to report everything.
I was wondering partly because of the several Apache2 Portfile
changes I've seen go through on the "Commit Log" list, but haven't
apparently been caught by the sudo port -d selfupdate, as the sudo
port outdated hasn't brought up any results for Apache2
selfupdate is only for updating MacPorts base infrastructure.
port outdated will only show ports that are outdated. A portfile can
be updated without requiring users to reinstall the software. You can
look in Subversion and see the log of everything that has been done
to a portfile:
http://trac.macosforge.org/projects/macports/log/trunk/dports/www/
apache2
You can see that in the latest change in June neither the version nor
the revision was updated, hence "port outdated" won't show it. In
this particular case, it might have been better had jberry also
incremented the port revision so that everyone would receive this
change. In other cases, that's not necessary.
