Help in installing Gimp

I am attempting to add gimp from the linpus add/remove software function and am getting the following error:

Unresolvable requirement libpanel-applet-2.so.0 for gnome-utils
Unresolvable requirement libgnome-desktop-2.so.2 for gnome-utils
Unresolvable requirement redhat-menus for kdelibs
Unresolvable requirement libgnome-menu.so.2 for gnome-screensaver
Unresolvable requirement redhat-menus >= 1.11 for htmlview

and ideas how to correct this......I am relatively new to linux and totally new to linpus of fedora.....any assistance would be appreciated

 

Have you tried...

Code:

sudo yum install makeclean gimp

 

how do you put it on the desktop?

 

The answer can be found at http://www.aspireoneuser.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=17&t=888&p=6475&hilit=adding+icons#p6475

 

Still having no luck installing gimp....when attempting sudo yum install makeclean gimp get an error saying that app makeclean not available......

 

I'm was getting things mixed up with FreeBSD. Remove the makeclean and instead just put

Code:

sudo yum install gimp

And that is what I did, if that does not work try to search on how in add the Livna repository then try again (Because I can't remember if it is on that one or not).

 

still no luck

I see now that acer has posted as .sh file with gimp, but since I am paranoid of doing the live updates since people have had so many issues, I am still trying to find a way

Thanks

 

the best way to install GIMP and skype is to go to ftp://ftp.acer-euro.com/netbook/aspire_one_linux/apps/
you will find GIMP there, download it and unzip it, than double click the .sh file, and every thing will be fine. I think Acer should announce these software publicly, instead keeping them on a FTP that not any one knows

 

Where did you find that FTP site? And are there other ones?
