 I came across this behaviour just now with the gail port, which has been
 removed in r40675 a while back.

 This is the error output:

 {{{Error: Port gail not found}}}

 The user needs a little indication about what the situation is about and
 how to get around this. In this case for example the user needs to run
 upgrade on the dependents of gail and the uninstall it.

 (And that does currently not work because of an image conflict of the new
 gtk2 with said gail port, because of these exact files.)
