RHBA-2012:1242 - gimp bug fix update

Synopsis

gimp bug fix update

Type/Severity

Bug Fix Advisory (none)

Topic

Updated gimp packages that fix one bug are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.

Description

The GIMP (GNU Image Manipulation Program) is an image composition and editing program. 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.

This update fixes the following bug:

  • Prior to this update, the Postscript plug-in could abort with a segmentation fault when saving images as Postscript files from GIMP if a preview was embedded in the file. This update modifies the underlying code so to handle embedded previews. (BZ#452998)

Users of gimp are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which fix this bug.

Solution

Before applying this update, make sure all previously-released errata relevant to your system have been applied.

This update is available via the Red Hat Network. Details on how to use the Red Hat Network to apply this update are available at https://access.redhat.com/knowledge/articles/11258
