i guess i can fix this problem
fixed
version 1.2.0-r1 has now a dependency on dev-perl/gimp-perl that is controled by the use flag "gimp". However the package does not work when it is emerged without the use flag set and called without the -I option. Seems that the dependency is not optional. Maybe this bug should be reopened.
