It's on the 5.1 cd, but I have the 1.0.0 and gtk 1.0.4 . Compiling is
really a non-issue, and if you haven't compiled, well, to quote Michael
Lankton, "you need to learn." It's as simple as going in as root, doing
the instructions for gtk (essentially, decompress, configure, make and
make install) and the same for gimp. it should really be a breeze. The
executable is in /usr/local/bin and just be sure to delete the .gimp
directory out of your personal directory.
