 Was unable to submit changes or to reopen the prior ticket (#22710)
 This message follows on the heels of the end of 22710 where I was
 instructed to do the following:

 {{{
 sudo port selfupdate
 sudo port upgrade outdated
 sudo port install gimp
 }}}

 gimp install failed at a later spot this time.
 final paragraph reads:

 {{{

 To fully complete your installation and make python 2.5 the default,
 please run

         sudo port install python_select
         sudo python_select python25

 Big question for me now is that I have installed python26 and want to keep
 it as the active python. Gimp seems to want 2.5 . Is there a workaround?
 Thanks....al
