 I just upgraded gimp2 to 2.8.2 (I believe from 2.8).
 Gimp-app was working properly before.  Now if I try gimp-app the
 application opens but there are no menus, so it is not useable. I get a
 message window that pops up and says,

 GIMP Message
 There was an error parsing the menu definition from image-menu.xml:
 Failed to open file
 '/Applications/MacPorts/Gimp.app/Contents/Resources/share/gimp/2.0/menus
 /image-menu.xml':No such file or directory.

 If I just run gimp from the command line is seems to work fine.  I see
 that the only directory in GIMP.app/Contents/Resources/share is themes.
 So, it seems that there is something in the gimp-app script that is
 looking for a file that doesn't exist.  But, gimp from the command line
 does find an appropriate menu.  I do see that gimp2 contents includes
 this: /opt/local/share/gimp/2.0/menus/image-menu.xml

 So, it seems that gimp2 checks that location, but gimp-app is looking in
 the wrong place for that file.
