Gimp

[brisray]

GIMP won't open in 1288. I've tried it in both Gnome and KDE.

What happens is that it appears to be loading - hourglass appears on screen, "Starting the GIMP" appears in the panel - but then these disappear and it doesn't actually start.

I've just downloaded 1290 and the same thing is happening. I went back to 1286 and it's happening there to, even though it worked OK before.

I've uninstalled Gimp then reinstalled it and it's still happening.

At the terminal...

gimp -v gives 2.2.7

gimp gives "Illegal instruction"

It is a reported bug, against the build of GIMP in FC4T3. I'm sure there will be a fixed version in Rawhide in the next day or two.

Does the test 3 freeze mean only fixes that need to be compile from rawhide or is rawhide part of the testing repo's and there will be more up2date activity or what?
In other words test3 seems way to imcomplete to release so are only complier testers going to determine the outcome of FC4's stablity and completness or will they release more of the fixes (because there is still a few things broken.)?!

I downloaded version 1303 this morning, GIMP now works again (version 2.2.7) and all the perl-PDL dependency errors I had are gone.

Thanks, brisay

I was in FC3 and couldn't see if the Up2date was active.
After rebooting into FC4, I got 1303 Keneral and 20 more updates, of which Gimp was one and now opens up.


And I got dump 40 lol
