Most Linux distros (Ubuntu is an exception) come with the necessary software tools to download a source tarball, configure, compile and install it. That is what I did. Slackware means you never have to wait for a deb or an rpm :<). But users of most other distros can do the same if they are in a hurry for Gimp 2.4rc3. -- John Culleton Want to know what I really think? http://apps.wexfordpress.net/blog/ And my must-read (free) short list: http://wexfordpress.com/tex/shortlist.pdf _______________________________________________ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
