Hello Ralf,
Err, here you just totally deleted the main application (gimp-1.2). The
'gimp' found in '/%{l_prefix}/bin/' is just a symbolic link to it, as well
as some other installed files.
I backed out the change to make this package work again, but it still needs
some work (I'll get to this tomorrow).
1 If we really want this versioned binary gone, then we
should rename it and not remove it.
2 There are other versioned artifacts of this package (like the
'/etc/gimp-1.2' directory) that we should consider renaming.
3 Get rid of the installed shared libraries
PS: I wonder if there are similar problems in other packages now. It
looks like you did a wild script-based replace using the new rpmlint
tool. What do you think?
