Hi,
For some reason, I cannot open the latest gimp - it does not work if I copy it to the rev 17 launcher either...
no clue what's happening - I only noticed that there is additional Lib folder in the main directory (with some ghostscript stuff) otherwise I do not know what's up...
I will keep you posted if I find the bug

hi guys, I'm experiencing similar troubles with X-LibreOffice 3.5.0 rev8 on XP.

I suspect that it's the same issue you have with X-Gimp.

please, download X-LibreOffice 3.5.0 from here:
-Link-

and tell me if it works on your system.

when I double-click tha launcher I get this message:

LibreOffice 3.5 - Fatal Error
The application cannot be started
a file status object could not be filled

is the same error you get with X-Gimp?
I suspect that there's some incompatibility with XP and some X-softwares

I enclose a picture of the error at the opening of X-LibreOffice 3.5 on my XP SP3.
Ciao

@dito

I suspect the X-gimp and X-libreoffice issues on xp have the same root
