Just a little feedback and another `thank you'.
I started with `rpm -q --requires gimp.

Then selected from that list just gtk2 and glib2 by updating just the
devel versions which usually pulls in other needed stuff.

After just going thru those two.  Which updated both versions of each
and Pango (+ devel).  Is all it took to get gimp running.

Thanks for the nifty logical proceedure.
