Problem with "port -u uninstall"

[Carlo Tambuatco]

Not sure what you uninstalled or what kind of dependency it was (runtime, build, library, etc), 
but the malfunction might not show up until you actually run gimp2 or perform some function 
within gimp2 that depends on the thing you uninstalled…

Just my 2 cents…
