trying to install gimp and I get this error. Can you tell me how to fix this?

You must install or activate this package with '-f' (force) as it needs to overwrite files installed by the perl5.8 port

This line that you pasted has your answer:

port -f activate p5-pathtools

--->  Installing p5-pathtools 3.25_0
--->  Activating p5-pathtools 3.25_0
Error: Target org.macports.activate returned: Image error: /opt/ local/lib/perl5/5.8.8/darwin-2level/auto/Cwd/Cwd.bs is being used by the active perl5.8 port. Please deactivate this port first, or use the -f flag to force the activation.
