 Hi,

 I tried to install gimp by:

 $ sudo port install gimp

 When it reached a package libtheora, it failed. It complained about some
 functions containing "png" so I guessed that libpng was missing.
 So I tried

 $ sudo port install libpng

 This worked fine. And then again:

 $ sudo port install gimp

 This time gimp installed successfully.

 Maybe libtheora doesn't list libpng as a dependency, maybe it and other
 packages used by gimp does list it as a dep but fails to build it at the
 right time.

 Thought you'd like to know.

 BR
