Just a thought here but would it be worthwhile to just modify the |
24 |
ebuild? instead of |
25 |
RDEPEND =media-gfx/gimp-2.2* |

RDEPEND >=media-gfx/gimp-2.2* |
28 |

This would allow you to not have to downgrade gimp. Its a possibilty |
30 |
without more research I wouldnt be able to tell you if its the best |
31 |
solution or not though |
