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.

The wonders of the Internet would be happy to fetch it from Belgium or Canada instead, but if dialup accounts cared, that would be free (no quota) traffic fast (not that Mr 5.2kB/s Modem cares about that, either :-).
