I am now a 2.10.34 user and I didn't have to reconfigure anything, thanks PixLab Gimper Extraordinaire. All of the keyboard assignments are still there as well as my templates and default directories.
I did make a clone for insurance prior to installation but did not have to use it. GMIC appeared for the first time, it found the drivers it wanted and Gimp reported no errors. I don't know how useful GMIC will be. I see a lot of filters but most of them don't seem to be for image improvements. I am mostly interested in color and sharpness adjustments, curves, saturation, levels, shadows and highlights. With all the new filters there's likely a few I will find useful but it will take some investigation.
The PNG files seem to load a lot faster.
I did have to reinstall Liquid Rescale. A plug-in I have yet to find a use for, again it may take some time.
