 Attempted to install port Inkscape, all went well until end:
 {{{
 Error: The following dependencies failed to build: py25-numpy py25-nose
 py25-xml
 }}}
 Manually installed py25-xml without problem.
 Attempted manual install of py25-nose and received the following:
 {{{
 Error: Unable to execute port: Image error: /opt/local/bin/nosetests is
 being used by the active py-nose port.  Please deactivate this port first,
 or use 'port -f activate py25-nose' to force the activation.
 }}}
 Attempted to "port -f activate py25-nose" and received the following:

 {{{
 port -f activate py25-nose
 --->  The following versions of py25-nose are currently installed:
 --->    py25-nose @0.10.4_0
 --->    py25-nose @0.11.1_0
 Error: port activate failed: Registry error: Please specify the full
 version as recorded in the port registry.
 }}}

 1) Should I uninstall the 0.10.4_0 version, then attempt the activate
 again?
 2) Will this solve the problem with getting Inkscape installed?
 3) Has the problems surrounding getting GIMP installed been resolved yet?
 I find no completed or continuing ticket mention other than the items I
 submitted months ago.
 Thanks
 Al
