Doesn't python-2.5 live under lang/python25 or has it been removed
from the ports tree?

(Hopefully that doesn't sound like a rephrasing of your question)

The problem could come from the downgrading of lang/python back to 2.4
after some problems were found with the 2.5 import.

I've not seen any instructions in /usr/ports/UPDATING for those people
that upgraded to python-2.5 before the change was reversed. What would
be the best course of action? (I force-upgraded all the ports that
were depending upon lang/python because I'm crazy and have loads of
time on my hands).
