Output when trying to update with a locally installed package named "nothing":

And the entire pkg update transaction errors out at that point. It should instead just print a warning that a given package was not found on the Octave Forge server and continue updating the rest of the packages.

I have a pkg named sci_cosim installed,
and when I do a pkg update it complains about the sci_cosim pkg because it does not exist in the forge list of possible packages.

External packages should be skipped and reported as not checked or updated.
