Thank you for your support. Yes, the response was a little unnerving. To set the record straight, I have installed over 150 different versions of linux, some with very complex tweaking, like nixos, smgl, kwort, aros, arch.
I am 61yrs and have been installing and learning since redhat, deb and slackware were on floppy and stiffy. Those earliest budding installations were full of bugs, and required real brain crunching to install! That said, I wont give up on Gobo, its a fresh, intelligent adaption of linux that has me smitten. Its just happens that during my compilation, the compiler is seeking files that are not there? If I try download that missing file or program, it also complains, and I end up chasing my tail looking missing stuff and so on... Your wording re gimp, I trust could hopefully alter Gobo's next updated iso. Yes, we must encourage each other for the betterment of GOBOLINUX. I now can clearly see, Gobo had at its core, professionals who care and proudly uphold the Gobo banner for all to join and participate in a friendly exchange of insight and ideas. If all concerned really and truly want GoboLinux to really explode worldwide, by having this great progressive system on every school desktop, in businesses and homes, then I encourage Gobolinux to engineer a full training graphical manual for beginners to professionals. To all who encouraged me, a warm Thank You, and no hard feelings for the terse response. Gobo has won me over, it will read and read, try and try - until I get it right! :-) >From a really sunny and warm Cape Town, I bid all Gobo readers, All Good Things Always, John.
