stuck without gimp2?

Paul Sheldon-2
gimp2 says I need X11 on web page :
http://www.gimp.org/macintosh/

They too are slipping and sliding on whether it is the developer kit or app.

The 2006 version of X11 app dated post Tiger June 2006, at Nov 2006, claims
as I am downloading it that my 2003 version needs no upgrade on my system
(powerbook aluminum).

gimp2 isn't talking to the X11 "error message writer guys" because it
says, at one time, I need X11 and now just blinks off and stops asking.

I don't believe any error messages, because I know they are darned hard
to write given anyones peculiar logic path. gimp2 is contradicting itself
by blinking out.

So, I plan to get the X11 app install to complain, instead, I need it when
I do a 10.4.10 upgrade and hope for the best.

To actually do a superuser do to deinstall X11 and deal instead with
FreeBSDX
or whatever the portfiles were saying seems even more in the jungle
and out of warantee.

A mechanic loves you no more than when you bring him a basket case
computer and he has to rebuild it at your expense.

I'm on the edge here and so far lost.
