Fedora Test Update Notification

Product     : Fedora Core 3
Name        : gimp
Version     : 2.2.1
Release     : 0.fc3.1
Summary     : The GNU Image Manipulation Program
Description :
The GIMP (GNU Image Manipulation Program) is a powerful image
composition and editing program, which can be extremely useful for
creating logos and other graphics for webpages. The GIMP has many of
the tools and filters you would expect to find in similar commercial
offerings, and some interesting extras as well. The GIMP provides a
large image manipulation toolbox, including channel operations and
layers, effects, sub-pixel imaging and anti-aliasing, and conversions,
all with multi-level undo.

The GIMP includes a scripting facility, but many of the included
scripts rely on fonts that we cannot distribute. The GIMP FTP site
has a package of fonts that you can install by yourself, which
includes all the fonts needed to run the included scripts. Some of
the fonts have unusual licensing requirements; all the licenses are
documented in the package. Get
ftp://ftp.gimp.org/pub/gimp/fonts/freefonts-0.10.tar.gz and
ftp://ftp.gimp.org/pub/gimp/fonts/sharefonts-0.10.tar.gz if you are so
inclined.  Alternatively, choose fonts which exist on your system
before running the scripts.

Update Information:

This is a major update (2.0 -> 2.2) which I did because upstream made
2.2 to be binary compatible. Still I'd like to have as much feedback as
possible, especially if there are regressions compared to the 2.0
packages. I plan to release this as a final update by end of next week
(Jan 14th).
