Bug Description

Binary package hint: gimp

I think we need to consider allowing in the second RC of the 2.4.0 release of GIMP. The two RC releases have been bugfixes only, with a few features being nailed down in 2.3.19

Changes in GIMP 2.4.0-rc2
=========================

- more improvements and bug fixes in the rectangle tools
- antialias the display for zoom levels between 100% and 200%
- fix zoomed-out display problems
- improve handling of JPEG settings
- fix script-fu error reporting
- on OS X, get rid of menubars in windows and use the global menubar
- fix plug-ins using GimpZoomPreview
- throw properly catchable exceptions from foreign script-fu function
  (like PDB wrappers)
- bug fixes

Changes in GIMP 2.4.0-rc1
=========================

- further improvement to the Print plug-in
- completed the color management functionality for 2.4
- store JPEG setting with the image and use them when saving as JPEG
- further improved the rectangle tools, in particular handling of the
  fixed aspect ratio
- added color profile selector widget
- further improved the display quality for zoomed-out views

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

- support long layer names in PSD files
- improved EXIF handling in the JPEG file plug-in
- added control for the playback speed in the Animation Playback plug-in
- avoid needless image preview invalidation
- allow to edit the image comment in the Image Properties dialog
- further improved rectangle tools
- made JPEG save parameters user-configurable
- avoid color conversions between identical ICC color profiles
- improved Print plug-in
- improved loading and saving of indexed TGA images
- bug fixes and code cleanup

I have a test package built on my PPA, which I've tested myself.

As we plan to offer gimp 2.4, as soon as we can have 2.4.0~rc2 as soon we can investigate it before final release of Gutsy.
