I installed the X11 SDK from disk because I was installing Gimp from source, but that didn't do it. I now get:
checking for perl... /usr/bin/perl
checking for XML::Parser... configure: error: XML::Parser perl module is required for intltool
### execution of /var/tmp/tmp.2.dfHluK failed, exit code 1
Failed: compiling gimp2-2.0.6-1 failed
Robert Wyatt suggested I try sudo apt-get install gimp and now I seem to have downloaded gimp 1.2, although my xterm says 'no such file' when I type it in.
Any suggestions?

You have an existing X11 installation in /usr/X11R6 and/or /etc/X11.
This package refuses to overwrite these. Remove them, then tell Fink to
install xfree86 again. (The package won't be recompiled.) If you want
to keep your X11 installation, install system-xfree86 resp. system-xtools
instead to make this known to Fink's package system.
Is it related to this?
http://fink.sourceforge.net/faq/usage-packages.php?phpLang=en#apple-x11-wants-xfree86
And the "system-sfree86 resp. system-xtools" message is somewhat confusing as well as outdated:
system-xfree86 is now a virtual package (along with system-xfree86-shlibs and system-xfree86-dev) that shows up automatically.
system-xtools was supposed to allow people to use XTools, which was a commercial X11 project which I don't believe ever had a version for Jaguar, much less Panther.
resp. is somebody's HTMLese way to avoid having "system-xfree86 / system-xtools"
Anyway, just follow what it says in the above FAQ entry.
