Anyway to change ~/.gimp-1.2 name?

[Jonathan Gift]

Hi,

I posted this earlier but part of a longer message. I have the new Helix
compiled Gimp 1.2 and the installtion program offers me only the
.gimp-1.2 home directory. I've tried changing the path in preferences
and no go. So, is this particular to this build, or all the new Gimp
1.2? Gimp 1.04 defaulted to .gimp and I'd like that if I can hack it.

None of the other apps does it and it sort of stands out...

Thanks.

Jonathan
