Still can't clear this out.

I have run make uninstall on 2.3.13 , uninstalled the distro pkg 2.2.12  
and gimp-print-4.7

then I went through the whole system with a file browser and removed  
anything remotely looking to be gimp related.

Then rebuild distro package from source , but when I run it , it still  
wants to set up the configs in ~/.gimp-2.3

What is "the library" refered to above? Can someone suggest something I  
can run through 'find' to locate whatever cruft is lying around on this  
system?

TIA.
