Ok, Sven, That did in fact fix things. I was getting those above conflicts while trying to install fontconfig and fontconf-devel, but using another source installs them without conflicts and Gimp 1.3.20 runs happily now. Thanks for the heads up on the bug, I should learn to check there too, but I thought you guys might know first.
