Gimp and gimp-devel needs to be rebuilt but a simple rebuild doesn't
fix the plugin. The plugin crashes with the following error message on
the terminal:

GLib-ERROR **: The thread system is not yet initialized.
aborting...

I haven't looked into it any further. The plugin is only used to use
the gimp help browser but a regular web browser can also be used to
view the help files so it's not critical.

BTW, I've noticed that you are using the svn source version in the
pkgrel so we have pkgrel=0.41443  which looks quite weird. Why don't
you just use the version as stated in configure.ac for the package,
i.e. 1.1.1-1? It seems to be sufficient IMO. If you really want to
also have the svn version there, put it in the pkgver: 1.1.1.41443-1.
The pkgrel is supposed to be used for the PKGBUILD version, not the
package's source version.
