Re: [Gimp-user] 2.4 ( DEBs/RPMs)
snip 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. I have just looked at the Ubuntu 7.10 'try it first disc' and Gimp 2.4rc3 was on it.

I started too soon, as Richard Hirner (thanks!) sent me a link for a native Feisty package after I'd got all of the strings loose. It's taken 49 package updates the Feisty kinda thinks it's Gutsy at the moment. Good-night from GMT+11 (GMT+10+DST), I'll let you know soonish how it actually runs.

This RAM-limited Celeron 566 makes it run kind of slowly, but it does run reliably some of the newer tools are enjoyable. A friend from the other side of Oz will be mailing me a set of Gutsy CDs a DVD, so I'll use those to update all of the way when they arrive. Wouldn't surprise me to see Ubuntu put real 2.4 up as an update to replace ~rc3 shortly.
