[gimptool not in Red Hat Gimp RPM]
 Any suggestions?  Is Red Hat broken, or is it our configure script?

IIRC gimptool is in the gimp-devel package, which makes sense, because
all uses (except determining the Gimp Version) are developer-related.

So, adding scripts you downloaded from the registry is developer-related?

(it's definitely not _that_ clear).

Argh - OK. I forgot the Script-fu scripts. But adding plugins is
impossible w/o gimp-devel, because the libgimp header files are
unavailable.

Also, gimptool is very useful for other programs, to find out where gimp
was installed, even at runtime.

This was a legitimate screw-up in one version of Red Hat, IIRC. They
did not include the gimptool script in either gimp or gimp-devel
RPMs. This became an issue on IRC for several people, until we finally
figured it out.

 I don't think so: You don't need header files to add a plug-in. You only
 need gimptool. The header files are only required when compiling a plug-in
 from source.

So you can obtain precompiled plugins from the registry?

Anyway. I am not really happy about the descision to put gimptool
in the gimp-devel package. But it will fail to work for installing
plugins from c-source, so technically speaking it *has* a dependency
on gimp-devel and it is perfectly reasonable to put it in gimp-devel.

Simon

6.0 had no gimp-tool
6.1 has it in gimp-devel
6.2 has it in gimp-devel
pinstripe has it in gimp-devel
