Changes in GIMP 2.3.19
======================

Great! - looks like 2.4 is getting closer. Is there a hard dependency on GTK+ 2.10.13?
I run Ubuntu 7.04 (Feisty) which unfortunately is still on libgtk2.0-dev 2.10.11. I know this isn't GIMP's issue, but if 2.4 is imminent then a dependency on GTK 2.10.13 might cause a delay in getting it out to at least one major distribution. I'm not clear how the upstream/downstream provider works out the dependencies but the 2.10.13 dependency MIGHT cause a delay in adoption of GIMP 2.4. Not trying to start a distribution/dependency flame war, just pointing out the dependency. (Yes, I know it isn't GIMP's problem. Yes, I know it is my problem. Yes,......)

I checked out pinning (debian-speak for installing select packages outside the "official" distribution) but it required 46 updates - including a libc6 update. Hesitant to do this on my primary machine. Here's hoping for a backport.
