You can simply uninstall the ncurses and render ports; they are no longer needed. When ports get renamed or merged into other ports, we make an upgrade path available so that "sudo port upgrade outdated" will do the right thing, but we only leave that in place for one year or so, and then delete the old port. In the case of ncursesw, its functionality was rolled into ncurses in r76622 (3 years ago) and the upgrade path was deleted in r91972 (2 years ago). render was renamed to xorg-renderproto in r41785 (over 5 years ago), and the upgrade path was deleted in r44924 (5 years ago). Note that "sudo port upgrade installed" is not the command you should usually run. Usually, you should run "sudo port upgrade outdated"; doing so would avoid the warning messages you saw. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/42877#comment:2> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
