I had no idea gkrellm had become gkrellm2 because I have been using  gkrellm for many years and only recently decided to update it.  Is there something which I should do to know that a port has changed names? I couldnt find anything in UPDATING but as you said the switch happened a long time back it wouldnt make sense to check UPDATING.

Something isn't right with portsnap on your machine, because those
gkrellm port files shouldn't even be on your system anymore (portsnap
should have deleted them). You might try deleting your ports tree and
re-extracting the snapshot (portsnap fetch extract).

Removed files only get an annotation in /usr/port/MOVED, but that file
isn't very end-user-friendly.
