Changing gimp_data_dir

In GIMP 2 (I'm using 2.2.8 on Windows) the variable gimp_data_dir is referred to a fair bit in gimprc.

Is there a way of changing what this is set to ? I've tried using the same approach as in GIMP 1.2 e.g.

(gimp_data_dir "${prefix}/share/gimp/1.2")

but this doesn't seem to work in GIMP 2

Thanks for any assistance,

Colin

See the gimprc man-page (http://gimp.org/man/gimprc.html). You can set the GIMP2_DATADIR environment variable.
