[Gimp-user] Can No Longer startup Gimp 2.4 in Ubuntu Hardy Heron

[Robert Kennedy]

I just installed Ubuntu Hardy Heron 8.04.1 a week ago on a x86 PC. And gimp was working just fine.

Then I installed Gimpshop (based on gimp 2.2).  FYI -- Gimpshop installs into a different directory /usr/local/bin.

Both gimp and gimpshop were working.  In fact you could run both at the same time. 

But now when I start gimp, I get this error:

symbol lookup error: undefined symbol: gimp_micro_version

I tried to reinstall gimp. That made no difference.

I did search google and this error is rarely reported.

Any ideas? I am really stumped and would like to get gimp working.  I thought someone on this list might have an idea.
