As we update to new versions of dependencies, we sometimes have to update patches that let old versions of those same packages build. It's not always obvious that a new package is available, because it usually shows up when resolving something in the bootstrap process. It would be helpful to have clear warning-level messages when fromager prepares the source for a package and finds patches for old versions, but not the version being built at the time.
