and
home/patrice/.config/GIMP/2.10/fonts/
are empty on my drive where Ubuntu-MATE is  Confused

I would like to bring back all my GIMP config and installed fonts/script/everything ➤ Not in mass, but slowly as it needs

As previous post and...

Presumably you have a separate home folder/partion for each installation. When it comes to Gimp 2.10 I can see no reason why you cannot transplant the whole Gimp  User Profile ~/.config/GIMP/2.10/ from one installtion to the other.

With a caveate, I have two computers (kubuntu 22.04 & 24.04). a common named folder for each system. ~/rich/gimp210 containing folders for each resource. Paths added to the Gimp user profile and no possible confusion between systems.

Another common folder for fonts is ~/.fonts Anything In there available to all applications. For example, tagged as ms-fonts

   

usr/share/gimp/2.0/fonts/  - always empty unless you add fonts to it. It is for a network Gimp accessed by several users.
home/patrice/.config/GIMP/2.10/fonts/ - should contain any fonts you put there. Empty ? What have you run to empty it ? You do have a backup somewhere, don't you Wink
