--------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Test Update Notification FEDORA-2005-073 2005-01-25 --------------------------------------------------------------------- Product : Fedora Core 3 Name : gimp Version : 2.2.3 Release : 0.fc3.1 Summary : The GNU Image Manipulation Program Description : The 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. The GIMP has many of the tools and filters you would expect to find in similar commercial offerings, and some interesting extras as well. The 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. The GIMP includes a scripting facility, but many of the included scripts rely on fonts that we cannot distribute. The GIMP FTP site has a package of fonts that you can install by yourself, which includes all the fonts needed to run the included scripts. Some of the fonts have unusual licensing requirements; all the licenses are documented in the package. Get ftp://ftp.gimp.org/pub/gimp/fonts/freefonts-0.10.tar.gz and ftp://ftp.gimp.org/pub/gimp/fonts/sharefonts-0.10.tar.gz if you are so inclined. Alternatively, choose fonts which exist on your system before running the scripts. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: I plan to make this update final by Monday, January 31st 2005 latest if there are no problems. --------------------------------------------------------------------- * Mon Jan 24 2005 Nils Philippsen <nphilipp@xxxxxxxxxx> - version 2.2.3 - remove exifmarkerlength patch (improved version applied upstream) * Mon Jan 17 2005 Nils Philippsen <nphilipp@xxxxxxxxxx> - clip thumbnail quality at 75 and don't barf on saving images at quality 0 (fix patch for #145100) * Fri Jan 14 2005 Nils Philippsen <nphilipp@xxxxxxxxxx> - avoid writing excessively long EXIF markers (#145100) --------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be downloaded from: http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/updates/testing/3/ 82f3acaec01d4950191c1f7aa279f93e SRPMS/gimp-2.2.3-0.fc3.1.src.rpm 4ca07dee511fd9ffd7242eab5b204d91 x86_64/gimp-2.2.3-0.fc3.1.x86_64.rpm 3b11be13ecaf7380247572f6f89dd058 x86_64/gimp-devel-2.2.3-0.fc3.1.x86_64.rpm 8eb482b5a22f049ec7eeb23bde0481b6 x86_64/debug/gimp-debuginfo-2.2.3-0.fc3.1.x86_64.rpm 7531c2b200342efc0b040c87aaa2860b i386/gimp-2.2.3-0.fc3.1.i386.rpm 05351362122fd9e132199b7fbb071c66 i386/gimp-devel-2.2.3-0.fc3.1.i386.rpm 80ddc99012f261476196ab9ac78d1f71 i386/debug/gimp-debuginfo-2.2.3-0.fc3.1.i386.rpm This update can also be installed with the Update Agent; you can launch the Update Agent with the 'up2date' command.
