>Description:

Upgrading graphics/gimp (gimp-2.2,2) without deinstalling it first is
not possible since building it is prevented by its Makefile

The following code will not only catch old gimp, but also itself:

pre-everything::
        @if [ -n "`${PKG_INFO} -xI '^gimp[-gnome]*[0-9].[0-9].[0-9]*' 2>/dev/null`" ]; then \
                ${ECHO_CMD} "${PKGNAME}: Old version of gimp detected! Please see ${PORTSDIR}/UPDATING for information on upgrading ${PKGNAME}" ; \
                ${FALSE}; \
        fi


>How-To-Repeat:

Install graphics/gimp (gimp-2.2,2) and then try to run the following:

# cd /usr/ports/graphics/gimp
# make
gimp-2.2,2: Old version of gimp detected! Please see /usr/ports/UPDATING for information on upgrading gimp-2.2,2
*** Error code 1

Stop in /usr/ports/graphics/gimp.
*** Error code 1

Stop in /usr/ports/graphics/gimp.
# 


>Fix:

Work-around is to run "pkg_delete -f gimp-2.2,2" and the reinstall it.
