No need to apologize! Usercommunity software like Gimp IS (inherently) not complete. But then again not all commercial ones are either :) Gimp as it is is very nice. And maturing all the time. What bugs me is the "lack of ease" in compiling it. There aren't any clear lists of dependencies and prerequisites listed anywhere. All you get is an error at either config or compile time. And not all of them are easy to resolve. It would be so much easier if there was a small file or something, listing what libs and utils need to be installed to compile the software. I think that would cut a lot of the usual questions on the lists. The same "i cant compile" type questions keep creeping up. And most of them seem to be old or missing libs. A list of used ones would ease things up for us "dont have a clue" kind of ppl :) Just my 2 cents... -- /Rikard " Sharing knowledge is the most fundamental act of friendship.
