32-bit version of Gimp 2.8 for Mac OSX 10.6.8

Hello,

I have a very old MacBook Pro that has the 32-bit intel chip. I downloaded the native Mac OSX build of Gimp 2.8.2 but it doesn't start. The console shows error messages of the form:

8/30/12 8:54:25 PM [0x0-0x4d04d].com.gnomw.Gimp[2215] /Applications/GIMP.app/Contents/MacOS/GIMP: line 74: /Applications/GIMP.app/Contents/MacOS/GIMP-bin: Bad CPU type in executable

And indeed, when I check the filetype on all the files in the /Applications/GIMP.app/Contents/MacOS directory I see the following:

GIMP-bin: Mach-O 64-bit executable x86_64 python: Mach-O 64-bit executable x86_64

So, is there an i386 version of GIMP-bin available for download? I'm running SnowLeopard 10.6.8 and I can't upgrade any further because I'm stuck on the old 32-bit chip.

Thanks,

Catherine

Hi Catherine,

sorry, that your question laid around so long without an answer. There's a bugticket for this in our bugtracker. You can watch it on [1].

Kind regards,

Sven
