So you can compile for ubuntu 24.04 and Debian 12 but these do not work with the Ivan-HC appimage largely Arch based. Same applies to the "official" gimp.org appimage, looks like based on debian but which version?
The only appimage / gmic I have working at the moment is the Gimp3 RC1 from TasMania which is based on ubuntu 24.04
Maybe more options will become available in the future as things progress; it's no big emergency or anything to have G'MIC and a Gimp 3 AppImage working right now. I'm not very good at compiling anything and I don't want to have to use Ubuntu 24.04 or Debian 12, if that is indeed what you are suggesting.
I switched to the Ivan-HC AppImage, from the GIMP-3.0.0-RC2+git-x86_64.AppImage at Gimp.org, on your previous advice to enable the usage of the resynthesizer plugin. Several others now also will only run on the Arch based image, like Beautify, etc..., as I'm sure you already know.
Tasmania quit providing his Gimp 3 images after Gimp.org starting doing appimages and his aren't available for download any longer. But, I don't really want to go back to Gimp 3 RC1 anyway. For now, it looks like Gimp 2.10.38 will be my option for G'MIC.
Thanks for all the information.
