Description damian 1999-04-17 10:41:52 UTC 
I am using RH 5.9.7

gimp-devel should include gimptool. This makes it possible
to compile tools like Gimp.pm from CPAN.

The change is something like this:

%files devel
%attr(-, root, root) /usr/lib/lib*a
%attr(-, root, root) /usr/include/*
#%attr(-, root, root) /usr/info/pdb.info*
%attr(-, root, root) /usr/bin/gimptool
Comment 1 Dale Lovelace 1999-06-04 18:44:59 UTC 
Sounds reasonable, Matt?

  Excerpt from gimptool:
gimptool is a tool that can, among other things, build plug-ins
or scripts and install them if they are distributed in one source
file.

gimptool can also be used by programs that need to know what libraries
and include-paths Gimp was compiled with. This is especially useful
in Makefiles.
Comment 2 Bill Nottingham 1999-09-25 02:44:59 UTC 
It does in the latest gimp packages.
