Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. Unfortunately, we cannot work on this bug because your description didn't include enough information. You may find it helpful to read "How to report bugs effectively" http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/bugs.html. We'd be grateful if you would then provide a more complete description of the problem.

We have instructions on debugging some types of problems at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingProcedures

At a minimum, we need:
1. the specific steps or actions you took that caused you to encounter the problem,
2. the behavior you expected, and
3. the behavior you actually encountered (in as much detail as possible).
Thanks!

The newest version of GIMP is now 2.8.4 and this bug is a wish to upload it.

[Launchpad Janitor (janitor)]

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

[Jeremy Bícha (jbicha)]

I'm not going to have this done by Feature Freeze as there's a linking problem that's causing this to fail to build on Raring and I don't have time to figure it out right now.

[Jeremy Bícha (jbicha)]

Oops, I didn't realize gimp was in main so I'm going to need a sponsor.

Here's a diff that preserves the Ubuntu changelog since some developers prefer that.
