Hello, I have installed gimp 2.10.12 (I have the same problem for 2.10.14) on Linux (Kiss Linux). When
I try to add some text on a picture, I get:
So I can't add text on a picture. On my system I have the following fonts:
With fc-list I get:
In Kiss Linux, each package is built from source. Because it isn't packaged, I have created a package. I compiled
gimp with the following:
In Kiss Linux, intltool isn't packaged, so I had to remove everything concerning internationalization from code. My build compiled, but perhaps I removed something
which is needed to add text. I applied the following patches:
- patch to remove intltool dependency
- patch to remove translation directory
As I understand, the dependency glib-networking is only used for documentation. I also remove this dependency.
- patch to remove glib-networking
At start, gimp is a little slow, but all tools I have tested until now works. Perhaps there is a better way to remove internationalization. I have tested other "paint" software, for example
imagemagick and I can add text on a picture without problems. Do somebody has an idea what to check and what could be wrong ?
Thank you!

ObliqueIn Kiss Linux, each package is built from source. Because it isn't packaged, I have created a package. I compiled
gimp with the following:
Code:
./configure \
--prefix=/usr \
--libexecdir=/usr/bin \
--disable-altivec \
--disable-static \
--disable-python \
--disable-nls \
--without-lcms \
--without-webkit
