yes - also, i wanted to have testing packages - see my yum.conf below!
(btw, if you don't already, it would be nice if you or someone else
could make a yum.conf with all comp./needed reps. and _all_ their
mirrors, so that one doesn't have to go mirror/rep.-hunting every week!
also, what about an rpm that would also update up2date conf.? i like
using both ;-)

so does that mean that currently the needed package isn't avaible, and i
just have to wait until gimp-plugin for gimp 2.0 gets released? means,
do i have to change my yum.conf?

kind regards.
