Comment (by devans@…):

 The log file shows that gimp-gap-devel configured and built correctly but
 failed during the destroot phase (pre-install staging) due to this error
 {{{
 :info:destroot  /opt/local/bin/gmkdir -p
 '/opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports
 .org_release_tarballs_ports_graphics_gimp-gap-devel/gimp-gap-
 devel/work/destroot/opt/local/lib/gimp-gap-2.7'
 :info:destroot /bin/sh: /opt/local/bin/gmkdir: No such file or directory
 :info:destroot make[2]: *** [install-scriptdataDATA] Error 1

 }}}

 /opt/local/bin/gmkdir is provided by port coreutils.

 Looks like something like this happened
   * you had coreutils installed (installing /opt/local/bin/gmkdir)
   * you ran the configured gimp-gap-devel which decided to use gmkdir
   * something happened but you ended up uninstalling coreutils and then
 tried to build gimp-gap-devel again without cleaning it first.
   * you get this failure because gimp-gap-devel is configured to use
 gmkdir but its not there now

 Solution is to clean gimp-gap-devel and try again

 {{{
 sudo port clean gimp-gap-devel
 sudo port install gimp-gap-devel
 }}}
