$FreeBSD: ports/graphics/gimp1/Makefile,v 1.60 1999/11/11 20:14:00 jim Exp $


>Description:

Now that the graphics/gimp port has disappeared, the only available
version of Gimp in the ports tree is the development version. The
fact that it is located in the /pub/gimp/unstable directory on
ftp.gimp.org should be a hint that it's not considered ready for
public consumption, and it does indeed seem to be quite unusable
(there are serious problem with the toolbox layout; the color and
pattern selectors appear and disappear randomly when the toolbox
is resized.)

In addition, the PLIST seems to be broken (which breaks 'make package').

>How-To-Repeat:

# cd /usr/ports/graphics/gimp1
# make install
# gimp

>Fix:

Reintroduce a port of the latest stable release of Gimp.
