There is an updated pull request by ericonr against master on the void-packages repository https://github.com/ericonr/void-packages gimp https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/pull/27511 gimp: put locale data in /usr/share/locale. Their gettext version check tries to link _nl_msg_cat_cntr, which is available only in GNU gettext. This breaks when using musl's built-in gettext impl, and leads to DATADIRNAME=lib being set, which is then used to set gimplocaledir to /usr/lib/locale. A patch file from https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/pull/27511.patch is attached
