Its sort of a hybrid. Mostly rawhide.
Cat /etc/fedora-release just shows:
Fedora Core release Rawhide (Rawhide)
I always get confused about the
version thing. I just update out of rawhide intermittenly. Do you
know what other packages might be causing the problem?
The only way to reliably find out what may be causing this were to debug
it deeply. A good guess would be gtk2 and related packages, but if you
want to be safe, do this:
0) Start with the gimp, gimp-devel packages
1) find out what packages are required ("rpm -q --requires ...")
2) find out which packages provide these requirements ("rpm -q
--whatprovides ...")
3) update these packages if necessary
4) repeat steps 1 through 3 until all packages are updated that gimp and
gimp-devel require
Alternatively you can update the whole system which is much easier ;-).
Shouldn't the dependancy routines have returned something about
a
problem?
No, they don't have information about library symbol changes.
Currently I have 238 packages to update. Any ideas which would be
most
likely to help this?. My system is fairly stable right now. I'd
like to just update whats needed at the moment for gimp.
If you want a fairly stable system, why do you use Rawhide?
