Name        : gimp
Product     : Fedora 9
Version     : 2.6.3
Release     : 2.fc9
URL         : http://www.gimp.org/
Summary     : GNU Image Manipulation Program
Description :
GIMP (GNU Image Manipulation Program) is a powerful image composition and
editing program, which can be extremely useful for creating logos and other
graphics for webpages. GIMP has many of the tools and filters you would expect
to find in similar commercial offerings, and some interesting extras as well.
GIMP provides a large image manipulation toolbox, including channel operations
and layers, effects, sub-pixel imaging and anti-aliasing, and conversions, all
with multi-level undo.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:

This update upgrades GIMP in Fedora 9 to version 2.6, please test thoroughly.
GIMP 2.6 is designed to be backwards-compatible to older 2.x versions, but
contains an updated Script-Fu implementation that is a bit stricter than those
in older GIMP versions. If you use scripts that aren't part of the GIMP package
or want additional information about the changes between versions 2.4 and 2.6,
please consult the release notes at:     http://www.gimp.org/release-
notes/gimp-2.6.html
