[SOLVED] gimp and libexiv2.so.27

I am using an up to date -current. When I tried to open gimp I got this:

Code:bash-5.2$ gimp --version
gimp: error while loading shared libraries: libexiv2.so.27: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directoryA search came up with this:

https://www.linuxquestions.org/quest...rs-4175725112/

and my machine has:

Code:ls /var/lib/pkgtools/packages/exiv*
/var/lib/pkgtools/packages/exiv2-0.28.0-x86_64-1So my question is, to fix this do I downgrade to exiv2-0.27.6?

I use slackpkg to manage updates, so if I did downgrade would I need to blacklist exiv2 ?
