Hey,

I just encountered this very odd problem with gimp2. The optional
depends on gimp-print doesn't get picked up. Every time I run
--fixdepends it find a 'new' optional depends on gimp-print, but it
never gets used.

 # lin --fixdepends gimp2 
+ adding "required" depends for "gimp2" on "gtk+-2" (on)                
   + adding "required" depends for "gimp2" on "libart_lgpl" (on)
+ adding "required" depends for "gimp2" on "aalib" (on)
+ adding "optional" depends for "gimp2" on "gimp-print" (off)
+ adding "optional" depends for "gimp2" on "gnome-desktop" (on)
gimp2 has changed depends:
* gimp-print was added to the optional dependancy list

 # lin -r gimp2 
+ removing all depends for and optional on "gimp2"
Checking dependencies for gimp2 
+ adding "required" depends for "gimp2" on "gtk+-2" (on)
+ adding "required" depends for "gimp2" on "libart_lgpl" (on)
+ adding "required" depends for "gimp2" on "aalib" (on)
gimp2:  Install optional dependency gnome-desktop For Gnome2 Support? 
[y] 

I know I can just lin gimp-print, but it seems like there is a bug
somewhere in the core tools (I'm running theedge, BTW).

Any ideas?
