That's weird. My babl version is 9999, but the actual installed version is 0.1.111.

I suspect that your babl-9999 live ebuild built date could be too old. So you need to rebuild it and then try to emerge gimp again.

That fixed it. I forgot that live ebuilds don't get updated automatically because their versions are always 9999.
