Q: is there a sane way to upgrade GIMP from 2.2 to 2.4 without wrecking my system? GIMP 2.4 has a few features that I could need for my daily work.
Add Packman to your repositories, and install it with Yast.
The Packman repositories are configured OK.
I see there is a distinction between the default 'gimp' package and the 'gimp24' package provided by Packman, which makes me wonder if it wouldn't be wise to first completely remove 'gimp', and then install 'gimp24' (similarly to some distributions providing two distinct 'firefox' and 'firefox3' packages which don't necessarly exclude each other).
When I just try to install 'gimp24', YaST gives me the following error message:
pattern: imaging has missing dependencies There are no installable providers of gimp for pattern:imaging-10.3-159.i586 <snip>
I am given two options here:
[ ] delete imaging [ ] Ignore this requirement just here
I didn't do anything and preferred to ask, since I don't know the consequences of either choice I could make.
Any suggestions?
Niki
I would recommend this repo: http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/GNOME:/Community/openSUSE_10.3/ For GIMP updates. -- Ben Kevan " The brain is like a parachute, it doesn't work very well if it can't be opened." -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
