Thanks, yes the version intended was installed.

That had some effect, but only to recreate the directory after restarting gimp, of course. But then it just repeated the gimpshop splash screen and had same previous file open failure. In trying to purge my system of anything gimp to start again, now I have made things worse and gone too far :-( I thought that getting rid of the directory /usr/include/gimp-2.0 was clearing out old stuff, except now the newest gimp complains that it can't find gimp-2.0 and much stuff fails to function :-( I've since read that this is where gimp-2.2.x stores its data files. I've asked 'smart' to find gimp-2.0 to reinstall it but it's not found - nor is it created with the replacement gimp-2.2.x package install. How should I proceed from here? 1/find an rpm of gimp-2.0 somewhere; 2/remove gimp again and build from source?
