The buildmaster is also responsible for sending the updated set of ports to the rsync server along with newly generated portindexes. Since the buildmaster is down, any port updates that have been committed over the past days have not been sent to the rsync server so you don't see them in `port outdated' (unless you have configured your MacPorts installation's sources.conf to get the Portfiles from GitHub rather than from rsync -- normally only MacPorts developers do that). As of Friday the power grid is stable and energy conservation is no longer required so I'll be bringing the build servers back up and you should see updates appearing normally within the next few hours. https://twitter.com/ERCOT_ISO/status/1362820173078687744
