That's great news, but apparently there is some lag in new packages
actually becoming available for download:

$ sudo port selfupdate
--->  Checking for newer releases of MacPorts
MacPorts base version 2.11.4 installed,
MacPorts base version 2.11.4 available.
--->  MacPorts base is already the latest version
--->  Updating the ports tree

The ports tree has been updated.
All installed ports are up to date.
$ port installed | grep ipc
  p5.34-ipc-run @20231003.0.0_0 (active)
