Image error activation problems

Hi Guys,

I have a current mac ports install. Sometime about a month or so ago my two
machines started getting these sorts of errors. Now it seems like every
time I try to update mac ports I have to fix these. Whenever I check, there
are many (sometimes over a dozen) of old versions of stuff which I have to
manually fix.

Short of nuke and restart, is there a way to fix this?

TIA,

MarkL
