To further add to the problem: yum did not remove the updated code. I
found this out by checking for more gimp packages:
--------------------------------------------------
[root@taltos ~]# pre gimp
gimp-2.2.2-0.fc3.3
gimp-print-4.2.7-2
gimp-print-utils-4.2.7-2
[root@taltos ~]# yum erase $(pre gimp)

I should add that this is on FC3, as updated. Yum is version 2.1.12.
