I don't think that GIMPskel project has been updated in a long time. I
found that it still requires libcups* for some reason....so I manually copy
those files from /usr/lib into the $TOP/lib folder. Wrong or right,
GIMPskel serves its purpose, at least for me.
That DYLD thing is probably easy enough to fix...I will try removing it and
see what happens.
