The only dependency that was added to GIMP-1.3 that wasn't part of GIMP-1.2 or hasn't been introduced by GTK+-2.0 is libart2. > To be explicit, I cannot build the required libraries for gimp 1.3.7 on > Solaris, my development platform. you should file bug-reports against the required packages then. Solaris is very special in lots of places and you can't expect free software developers to know and care about these little details by themselves. Salut, Sven
