[Scribus] gimp-2.2.0

[robert]

I've got the GIMP 2.2.0 running on Mandrake 10.1 (official) along with Scribus 
1.2.1cvs (Dec 19, 2004) no problem. I've only played briefly with [the 
newest] GIMP, but so far I see no glaring reason to rush to upgrade. The 
biggest change I've noticed is the file open dialog box. Overall, it's much 
improved, but even the old one had autocomplete (which doesn't seem to be 
well known) which helped in using it.

If the newest GIMP works for you, great. If it doesn't, don't lose any sleep 
over it and wreck your system.
