The version number shown in the About dialog is compiled into the application. There is no way it can show the wrong version number.

Leonard Evens <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> writes: > Could someone who actually knows clue me in on just what is happening? The latest Gimp from Fedora 9 updates is 2.4.7. It's About box shows 2.4.7. gimp --version shows 2.4.7. The latest gimp-help from Fedora 9 is 2.4.1. Gimp 'About' still shows 2.4.7, even when this gimp-help is installed. Advice: upgrade to Gimp 2.6. It's much nicer... -- Johan ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
