This is due to incompaitble RPMS. If (for example) gtk was compiled with egcs, gimp must be compiled with egcs. There is no easy way to tell what is compiled with what, so getting both gimp and gtk off a gimp mirror would be a good idea. Another possibility is for this error (far less common) is that there is an old library compiled with the other hanging around somewhere on the system. Remove old copies of libgimp.
