Comment (by istlota@…):
'ls -lash /Applications/MacPorts/GIMP.app/Contents/MacOS/GIMP' returns
nothing. Finder confirms there is no GIMP.app folder in
/Applications/MacPorts. Spotlight returns no hits when I use it to search
for GIMP.app.
When I stated that I do not have gimp installed, that was based upon my
never having successfully performed a 'port install gimp' or a 'port
install gimp-app', and the fact that 'port installed gimp' returns
nothing. Nevertheless, 'port installed gimp-app' reports that gimp-app is
installed. My assumption is that something else that I have explicitly
port installed, in turn, implicitly installed gimp-app as a dependency.
Proceeding with that assumption, I performed a 'port uninstall gimp-app'.
followed by a 'port clean gimp-app', then tried 'port -v rev-upgrade'
again. The result was that the rev-upgrade msg about not being able to
open GIMP went away, but was replaced by the a new msg:
Jiva:~ istlota$ port -v rev-upgrade
---> Scanning binaries for linking errors: 11.4%
Warning: Error parsing file /opt/local/libexec/dbus-daemon-launch-
helper: Error opening or reading file
---> Scanning binaries for linking errors: 100.0%
---> No broken files found.
I, then, performed a 'port install gimp-app +universal' . It has taken
eight hours, so far, but continues. The term session is not locked up
because it does periodically report the status of yet another dependent
port it installs. The last one was webkit-gtk. Obviously, I would remember
if I had ever sat thru this insanely lengthy process before. It has me
wondering if, maybe, gimp-app was installed as part of the lengthy process
of initially install MacPorts from the downloaded DMG. That was the only
time I have ever done anything with MacPorts that took this long.
