It blew up on Slackware 9 but on Gentoo it would compile if I eliminated printing. It could not find gimp-print although it was clearly there. I submitted a bug report on the Slackware failure. The other problem (printing) is trivial for my use. A relative who runs Red Hat also had a problem installing Gimp 1.3.17 with relation to Gimp-print.
So much for the status report. Now here is my question. The release notes mention a "trivial" RGB to CMYK conversion function. However I could not find the function on the menus. If it is a plug in then I didn't get it. This as everyone knows by now a critical issue for the book cover application. Printers expect CMYK and will be unhappy (or charge extra) if they get RGB instead. -- John Culleton Able Typesetters and Indexers http://wexfordpress.com _______________________________________________ Gimp-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.xcf.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
