Comment (by raimue at macports.org):

 `-u` can only be used in conjunction with `-f` at the moment.

 Ports cannot depend on a specific version, they just depends on another
 port. Therefore every dependent would be upgrade. There is no way to tell
 if it is necessary.

 No idea why it was printed 6 times.
