Subject:   py24-gobject won't deinstall

Sorry if this is more appropriate for the newbie list, but that one seems to
be inactive since 2005.

I am trying to install py25-gobject from ports
(/usr/ports/devel/py-gobject), but make complains that an older version
(py24-gobject) is already installed.

Deinstalling from that same directory returns a simple "Deinstalling for
..." and nothing else.

And then "make reinstall/install" starts the cycle all over again.

I tried pkg_delete to see what depends on py24-gobject and it's a hefty
list; is deinstalling that entire list and then installing py25-gobject the
only option for me?

Thanks for any help.
