Thanks for submitting the patch report.

I upgraded gimp2.6 last night and it runs fine.  I modified the
portfile for asciidoc to use python25 instead of python24 which
installed without errors.  However, when I ran the actual upgrade, I
still had to install python24.  Was there another dependency that we
missed?
