Name        : gimp
Product     : Fedora 12
Version     : 2.6.9
Release     : 4.fc12
URL         : http://www.gimp.org/
Summary     : GNU Image Manipulation Program
Description :
GIMP (GNU Image Manipulation Program) is a powerful image composition and
editing program, which can be extremely useful for creating logos and other
graphics for webpages. GIMP has many of the tools and filters you would expect
to find in similar commercial offerings, and some interesting extras as well.
GIMP provides a large image manipulation toolbox, including channel operations
and layers, effects, sub-pixel imaging and anti-aliasing, and conversions, all
with multi-level undo.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:

This update removes the barely used gimp-plugin-mgr script in both gimp and
xsane. The xsane-gimp package places the plugin binary now directly into the
GIMP plugin directory instead of symlinking it. If you have both "gimp" and
"xsane-gimp" installed, please test updating to the contained versions of gimp
and xsane-gimp thoroughly (e.g. use command line tools instead of the PackageKit
GUI to see eventual error messages) and verify their consistency after updating
with "rpm -V gimp xsane-gimp".    Overview of Changes from GIMP 2.6.8 to GIMP
