Right, so replacing libcairo fixed that error, but gimp still doesn't like my
gmic installation.
I have tried putting gmic in various places inside and outside of gimp
installation (always in separate folder), tried that with zipped version and
with installer, I always have those 'unable to run plugin' errors.
The Gimp version I'm using now is the one from www.gimp.org, not from Partha.
Before I'll try another builds I'd rather use all my options, I am a bit afraid
of making even bigger mess after installing another Gimp build over what I have
here.
