i did an emerge -up world, which included upgrading perl. now alot of my gimp plugings are no longer working. specifically, everything having to do with guides and all the scripts under "Alpha to Logo." i have tried unmerging and remerging gimp, but nothing seems to make a difference. the versions i am running are: perl: 5.8.0-r9 gimp: 1.2.3-r3 Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce:
this bug is the same as 14975.
Did you run /usr/portage/sys-devel/perl/files/libperl_rebuilder after perl was upgraded? You may need to remerge a dependency of gimp. Are there any error messages from the console that you can paste?

i did a libperl_rebuilder, then unmerged and merged gimp, and it did the trick. everything is working beautifully now. thank you for your help. sorry i didnt know about libperl_rebuilder before.
Good deal
