Thanks for the tips. I did run python-updater, and it only wanted to update the three boost libraries (now down to one) that I had installed, and those were all added by the "manual" check. The only mentions of python 2.5 in /var/db/pkg/*/*/DEPEND are of the >= form. That gives me confidence enough to remove that version of python.
