[DC LoCo] GIMP Troubles

[N.C. Weber]

Okay, libgegl and libbabl seem to be the only problem packages. GIMP is running fine now.  The only remaining caveat is that GIMP doesn't show up in the Dash. Since I have it on the Unity Launcher and can start it from terminal if necessary, I don't really care about that.

Sweet. That seemed to work. I used Synaptic to completely remove libgegl-0.0-0 and then used Ubuntu Tweak's Janitor to clean out the packages. I think I had packages left over from the GIMP PPA, and it kept reinstalling those packages. Now, I'm running into other packages that require the same treatment. This time it's libbabl-0.0-0. I'll let you know when I get this all sorted out.
