Hi,
I had gimp-cvs installed in /opt/gimp and wanted to use gimp-2.2 to print
some photos. I was getting errors starting gimp-2.2 so I ran make install
on gimp-cvs but 2.2. failed to start thowing up half a dozen errors.
$ gimp
GIMP: Error while parsing '/home/prof/.gimp-2.3/gimprc' in line 11:
invalid valu
e 'lanczos' for token interpolation-type
GIMP: There was an error parsing your 'gimprc' file. Default values will
be used
. A backup of your configuration has been created at
'/home/prof/.gimp-2.3/gimpr
c~'.

(gimp:23640): GLib-GObject-WARNING **: cannot register existing type

etc.
The cause is pretty clear but why is it using the gimprc in .gimp-2.3 ?!
There is alsa a .gimp-2.2 for this user but it taking a directory
specifically named as another version.
Having deleted both the .gimp* configs I restart 2.2 and get the orange
dlg "Gimp user installation" that tells me it needs create "a folder named
/home/user/.gimp-2.3" . YES gimp 2.2 wants to install it's config as
gimp-2.3 .
What is the mechanism leading to this error?
Thanks for any clarification.
