How about I give you a little technical support Smile
Ok here we go
your package is 22MB, ok Gimp is not a 22MB even with all the bells and whistles, so I had a look and you left in a 58MB /root folder, that is just compiling leftover junk, when you run the new2dir script sometimes it makes a junk folder called /root, If you ever see a /root folder just delete it, out of maybe 1000 Packages or so that I've compiled, only one had a /root folder, I forget which one, usually you have to manually make one sometimes just for settings, but no for gimp.
Next usually we make a separate dev and locale folder to reduce the size.
Next you're missing the /etc/gimp/

So basically here's your package with fixes and english only, no dev files, 4.7MB very nice size by the way, good job at compiling Smile Quick starting.

WOWOW~!!!

The master has spoken!

I always get those /root files in the .pet but was afraid to remove them assuming if dir2pet left them in there it must be for a reason.

Does it run without needing any of the upgraded dependencies?

It needs the /usr/etc/gimp folder I included in the updated reduced version. I just took it from another 2.4.5 version I had locally.
Other than that it ran on Dpup without any extra deps needed.
Probably you should of compiled it with printing also, a lot of people print from Gimp.

oh ya your .desktop(/usr/share/applications/gimp.desktop) file had
Exec=gimp-2.4 %U
it should be
Exec=gimp-2.4

and
Categories=Graphics;2DGraphics;RasterGraphics;GTK;
should be
Categories=RasterGraphics;
sometimes you might get multiple menu entries.
plus you forgot to delete gimp-2.4.5-pentium4.pet.specs from /
from the first time you packaged it and then renamed it Smile

Due to time constraints Speed 4 Gimp is the only thing I can offer support for now.

If anyone cleans the other pets and wants me to host them on my server I can.

Otherwise you can download them and open them with pet2tgz, delete the /root folder in the archive, and package them back up with dir2pet before installing.

Also this will give me time for gathering feedback on the other packages such as did the XFCE 4 booster pack work for you on other older XFCE versions or as a standalone (no previous XFCE installed).

In which case maybe it'd be better of we made it into a single .pet package.

The Wine 4 Warcraft package is clean, it does have a root folder in there, but only adds a folder on your desktop with a "Version Stamp" in it, which is only 40 bytes and can be deleted immediately.

Regards,
