py-nose & py25-nose conflict

[ram@…]

py-nose and py25-nose both try to install ${prefix}/bin/nosetests and hence one fails to activate if the other is active:

--->  Activating py-nose @0.10.4_0
Error: Target org.macports.activate returned: Image error: /opt/local/bin/nosetests is being used by the active py25-nose port.  Please deactivate this port first, or use the -f flag to force the activation.
Error: Status 1 encountered during processing.

py26-nose works around this, can something similar be done with the python24 and python25 versions?

Ok, I think I got the gist of the three terse messages. I have done the following:

--->  Activating py26-nose @0.11.1_0
--->  Cleaning py26-nose
Gulliver:~ aszy$ sudo port install gimp
--->  Computing dependencies for gimp
--->  Activating py25-nose @0.10.4_0

As you can see... no joy. Standing by... al

I subsequently took the "failed to build" list and piece by piece, attempted most of them. The final outcome is the following :

Not fixed?

--->  Activating py25-nose @1.0.0_0
Error: Target org.macports.activate returned: Image error: /opt/local/bin/nosetests is being used by the active py-nose port.  Please deactivate this port first, or use 'port -f activate py25-nose' to force the activation.
Error: Failed to install py25-nose

Is there an easy way to make the py25 version do what subsequent ones seem to? Or should I just do as suggested and force activation?

@ mpd : Do you really need py-nose? Just uninstall it and then activate py25-nose.

This appears to no longer be a problem with 1.1.2.
