Well, thank *you* for getting back to me.  Gimp is one of my daily routine
so I appreciate when it works right (and when it does not I appreciate
when somebody takes the trouble to find out what is wrong).

I kind of figured it out for myself by now.  The Print menu however should
cease to offer a gimp-print-based entry in this case.

Now that you mention it, it does make sense, at least as far as the
python-fu menu is concerned.  I am not sure right now whether the same
applies to script-fu, but I will hunt for the missing scripts in other
menus and let this list know if I find them (if you don't hear back from
me on this matter it means that either I had no time or those scripts are
no longer present in any menu).  Note incidentally that the scripts are
present physically on disk (in /opt/local/share/gimp/2.0/scripts/), it's
just that I cannot find them in the menus.

Thanks once more for the answers.
