I just did s Ximian red carpet install on 2.1, and it found I had
to manually uninstall ("rpm -e") the Gimp developer package before
red carpet would work. There were apparant conflicts with the
version of Gimp it wanted to install and it apparantly didn't check
for or remove the older developer package.

I installed Ximinan to get gnucash since the dependencies for it
were insane. It was easier to install Ximian than manually track
down all the dependencies gnucash needed.

YMMV,
