For those interested, here's Sven's original announcement:

* Date: Mon, 30 Dec 2002 13:09:00 -0800

Hi,

to bring this year to a happy end, here's another development release
of The GIMP:

  ftp://ftp.gimp.org/pub/gimp/v1.3/v1.3.11/

The gimprc file format changed with this release. Although the changes
are small, we don't provide backward compatibility with the old
format.  If you installed earlier versions of the 1.3 series, you are
advised to remove the /.gimp-1.3 directory and perform a fresh user
installation.  The system-wide gimprc in ${prefix}/etc/gimp/1.3/
documents the new file format.  The gimprc man-page has not yet been
updated.


Here's the list of changes for this release:

In another posting to gimp-devel, Sven also announced the existance of a small but annoying bug in 1.3.11 and provided a patch to fix it.

Hi,

unfortunately we have a small but rather annoying bug in the 1.3.11
release. Due to a missing path expansion, the PDB function
gimp_temp_name() does not work correctly. This affects a number of
plug-ins, namely gz, bz2, jpeg, screenshot and url. The fix is already
in CVS and since it is small and simple, I will upload it to the ftp
server next to the tarballs and I have attached it to this mail.  To
apply it, enter the toplevel directory of the gimp-1.3.11 source tree
and use the command 

  patch -p1 < <path-to-patch>

Then recompile and reinstall the core application:

  make -C app
  make -C app install     (as root)

Of course there are more bugs since this is a development release, but
you all know that ...


Salut, Sven
