... here the error messages, and gimp-2.2 was not working. I got the following answer from Brendan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > Read the Release Notes for 2.3/2.4. > > http://www.gimp.org/release-notes/gimp-2.3.html And he privately suggested me to sudo a make uninstall in gimp-2.3.19. I did it, and now gimp-2.2 works perfectly. However, I still have two questions: - why is building gimp-2.3.19 in /usr/local not enough for avoiding confusion between the two versions? I have no LD_LIBRARY_PATH defined, thus gimp-2.2 should search its libraries in /usr/lib; - why is the interface to gutenprint different in gimp-2.3.19, and in my opinion much less comfortable? -- Olivier Lecarme _______________________________________________ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
