fyi: you got your wish. sort of.

"proper" gimp 2.6 just being batched out now.

Oddly, it doesnt use gnome. the gnomevfs funtionality seems to be missing.
and it dropped its own help browser, in favor of just integrating into
whatever browser you have already
(uses firefox if you have it)

But otherwise, fully featured.

WIth the exception that it crashed and burned attempting to compiile
python modules.

Maciej, mr python, you should try a gimp configure yourself, and see
if you can figure out why it fails

you dont have to compile the thing. just attempt to configure.
