First of all, there will be no stable GIMP 2.7, since odd minor version numbers are reserved for development releases. Second, all complaints about some version of GIMP not being available on some operating system or distribution should go to the maintainers of that distribution, since the only official product released by the GIMP developers is the source code. It's totally up to the distributions to provide binaries, in whichever version they see fit. I hope this helped to answer some questions.

IMHO, the easiest way would be to upgrade to Ubuntu 8.10. Then you have all the latest libraries installed.

Off the top of my head you will at least babl and gegl which may well install from a deb Otherwise you may have to build them yourself, babl first and then gegl, last time I tried, gegl needed building with with ./configure --disable-docs you will need an updated glib, pango, atk I think, and finally gtk build them with ./configure --prefix=/opt and make sure you set the environment variables for your build as follows: export LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/opt/lib:/usr/lib" export PKG_CONFIG_PATH="/opt/lib/pkgconfig:/usr/lib/pkgconfig" export ACLOCAL_FLAGS="-I /opt/share/aclocal" Comeback if you run into troubles.

There probably is an appropriate repository that someone is providing with the required dependencies. I don't know where to find it, though.

Which version of Ubuntu are you using? 8.10 has 2.6 included in it If you are using 8.04, it is probably not possible to upgrade due to updated dependencies -- Owen ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
