Getting errors upon using "upgrade outdated"

Description (last modified by mf2k (Frank Schima))

I'm getting the following errors which I suspect are associated with the Haskell package due to the "hs-" prefixes but I don't know how to fix them:

perses:~ kytan$ sudo port upgrade outdated
Password:
Nothing to upgrade.
--->  Scanning binaries for linking errors 
--->  Found 4 broken files, matching files to ports      
Warning: No port hs-cabal-install found in the index; can't rebuild
Warning: No port hs-alex found in the index; can't rebuild
Warning: No port hs-happy found in the index; can't rebuild
Warning: No port hs-hscolour found in the index; can't rebuild
--->  Broken files found, but all associated ports are not in the index and so cannot be rebuilt.

These ports were deleted. See #61263.

If you don't need these ports, you can simply uninstall them. If you do need them, you can continue to use them and ignore the warning.

BTW, you can see a list of installed ports that are not in the index (usually because they were deleted) with port echo obsolete.

So noted. Thanks to all for the info. I'll probably just uninstall the Haskell stuff as I installed it out of curiosity more than anything else.
