===================

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.

Thanks again,
Patrick

 On any other day, that might seem strange...
