Re: [Gimp-user] GLIB 2.4.1 install help. . .
Thanks for the advice. :-) I've gotten frustrated with redhat and I'm working on installing Debian at the moment, hopefully the GIMP will work on that with slightly less frustration.

Dunno what is the meaning of "buffo", but gtk-+-2.4.1 from Debian sid is working perfectly on my K6-2 500. I've also built glib / gtk from source with the help of the garnome package which can be an alternative for those who want the "sources from the source" [tm]. -- Regards - Jean-Luc carol pgpTqnnJhxr4J.pgp Description: PGP signature

Thanks. :-) glib-1.2 and glib-2.x are two different libraries that can be installed side-by-side. Same for gtk+. However I strongly suggest that you use the binary packages that are available for your distribution and not attempt to install gtk+-2.x from source.
