Hello Luke, Gimp and it's depending libraries i.e GTK+ is probably installed under /usr/local/. This means that you have to add /usr/local/lib to your LD_LIBRARY_PATH e.g like this export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH Now you can try to run Gimp. If it fails you have to lookup where the libraries are installed and add the correct location to your LD_LIBRARY_PATH.
