So the best thing is probably to remove install_cmap from gimprc and have only a min_colors options. But don't we have to tell plugins if the Gimp app installed a colormap? Or can we leave this decision to the plugin's GdkRGB instance? For the GdkRGB bug which is fixed in CVS, Gimp 1.2 should probably require (the not yet released) Gtk 1.2.8. Currently Gimp requires 1.2.6 but it should already require 1.2.7 because of a fixed dnd bug in Gtk. Thanks, --Mitch
