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?
