Thanks for your reply, Michael.

The GIMP ./configure script said: "Checking for GTK+ - version >= 
2.24.10 ... no". So I was trying to install gtk+ version 3.4.3 since 
3.4.3 is greater than 2.24.10. I've since downloaded GTK+ version 2.24.5 
and it configured, built and installed to /opt/gimp-2.8 successfully.

But, I'm still getting the error "Checking for GTK+ - version >= 2.24.10 
... no" when attempting to ./configure GIMP. It doesn't seem to be 
finding the newer GTK+? GIMP can find all of its other dependencies in 
/opt/gimp-2.8 just fine. Is there something else I could try?

Thanks,
Nick
