Default Is gimp 2.0.1 compiled without help files ??

Hi,

I succeded running gimp but with my surprise when
I choosed help from the help menu I got an error message
saying:

Could not open '/usr/share/gimp/2.0/help/en/gimp-help.xml' for reading: No
such file or directory. Infact in the package there are no xml files. In
slackware-current there are no other packages named gimp apart from
gimp-print. What is the matter ?

Quote from the README at the gimp ftp site:
"This release does also not contain any user
documentation to be used by the built-in help
system. Help files for GIMP 2.0 are being worked
on and you can find snapshots at
ftp://ftp.gimp.org/pub/gimp/help/."
