Apparently for one thing, it's about some kind of package conflicts'ISH with GIMP GNU Image Manipulation Program. Via "apt-get install --dry-run" mypaint-data, I received the following: The following packages will be REMOVED: gimp gimp-ufraw libmypaint-1.3-0 libmypaint-common The following NEW packages will be installed: mypaint-data 0 upgraded, 1 newly installed, 4 to remove and [yada-yada large packages] not upgraded. If you didn't have GIMP installed, that wouldn't have hit your radar. Speaking as a GIMP fan nearly since their first days, OUCH!! :) Cindy :) -- Cindy-Sue Causey Talking Rock, Pickens County, Georgia, USA * runs with birdseed *
