Say "Windows" if that's what you mean.

There apparently are several different versions of xmlparse.dll floating around, or perhaps even a totally unrelated DLL with the same name? Presumably one of those has been installed in your Windows system32 folder by some broken software (*nothing* other than what is shipped with Windows should be installed in the system32 folder). Remove xmlparse.dll from the system32 folder, so that the one you got with GIMP gets used instead. BTW, on my machine, I seem to have a version of expat where the DLL in question is called "libexpat.dll". I don't recall right now where I got that from, or whether I built it myself. This kind of confusion is not uncommon in the world of Free and Open Source software for Win32. They typically occur when the "official" way to build for Win32 is with MSVC and the package's official sources provide MSVC makefiles that produce a certain DLL, but if you build using autofoo and libtool instead you get another name. Then different people distribute binaries built in the two (or even more) ways. Well-known cases are gettext-runtime (intl.dll vs. libintl3.dll) and libiconv (iconv.dll vs. some libiconv*.dll.) --tml _______________________________________________ gtk-list@xxxxxxxxx http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-list
