✅ Remediation

Before applying this update, make sure that all previously-released errata relevant to your system have been applied. This update is available via Red Hat Network. Details on how to use the Red Hat Network to apply this update are available at http://kbase.redhat.com/faq/FAQ_58_10188 Although the execution order problem in GIMP packages for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 is fixed in these erratum packages, due to the nature of the problem it will show up once more when updating from an affected version to a fixed version. To add these symbolic links back in, run the following command after installation of the new packages: /usr/sbin/gimp-plugin-mgr --install \*
