RE: GIMP in 20.04 - rich2005 - 05-01-2020 You have to make a splashes folder in your user profile. As described here: https://docs.gimp.org/2.10/en/customize-splashscreen.html example: https://i.imgur.com/YO4ZS3w.jpg RE: GIMP in 20.04 - meetdilip - 05-01-2020 Works great !! Many thanks. RE: GIMP in 20.04 - meetdilip - 05-04-2020 How can I install GIMP through App Image ? Is it easy /safe ? Thanks. I tried from your link in other post and landed at this page https://github.com/aferrero2707/gimp-plugins-collection/releases/tag/continuous Took the instructions and executed 1. GMIC-Gimp-2.10-linux.AppImage 2. ResynthesizerPlugin-Gimp-2.10-linux.AppImage Now I have /home/name/.config/GIMP-AppImage/2.10/plug-ins/ But GIMP is not reading anything from it. RE: GIMP in 20.04 - Ofnuts - 05-04-2020 A bit more hardcore but I bit the bullet and installed Gimp from source. Not too hard, the main problem is figuring out the packages that you need. If you installed Gimp from the repos you have most of them anyway, you mostly need the development versions. The process starts here: https://wiki.gimp.org/wiki/Hacking:Building I can help you fill the gaps. RE: GIMP in 20.04 - meetdilip - 05-04-2020 I am not that good. If this goes on like this, either I will downgrade to 18.04 or use GIMP with whatever available. Your ofn-erase-background is my favourite so far. Worked in snap, but now I use Discover store in Kubuntu 20.04 it is not working. Everyone was saying using AppImage will fix it. Tried that, now I have 2 folders under .config -- GIMP and GIMP-AppImage I know you are trying to help. But 20.04 seems to have made things hard for normal users like me. So grateful for your guidance. RE: GIMP in 20.04 - rich2005 - 05-04-2020 (05-04-2020, 01:27 AM)meetdilip Wrote: How can I install GIMP through App Image ? Is it easy /safe ? Thanks. The Resynthesizer appimage should install but have you the correct version of Gimp? Make life easy for yourself as: The Gimp Appimage: To recap: Get it from https://github.com/aferrero2707/gimp-appimage/releases/ There are different versions available. Some are 'withplugins' and contain extra library files and one or two pre-installed plugins resynthesizer and gimp_gmic_qt There is the current 'stable' 2.10.18 get the one with plugins https://github.com/aferrero2707/gimp-appimage/releases/download/continuous/GIMP_AppImage-release-2.10.18-withplugins-x86_64.AppImage or there is a weekly updated pre-Gimp 2.10.20 Worth considerating, some notable bugs are fixed such as the python non-working font chooser. https://github.com/aferrero2707/gimp-appimage/releases/download/continuous/GIMP_AppImage-git-2.10.19-20200430-withplugins-x86_64.AppImage Installation: Copy to a folder somewhere, does not always need to be in your home folder. Make the file executable, Run it. If you need a desktop file for a menu entry, use the kde menu editor: https://i.imgur.com/3EfBYmd.jpg Working: Same as a regular gimp it makes a user profile: ~/.config/GIMP-AppImage/2.10/ Any extra resources you need fonts / brushes / scripts / plugins go there.

Not too hard, the main problem is figuring out the packages that you need. If you installed Gimp from the repos you have most of them anyway, you mostly need the development versions. How about a complete rundown on the process? Did you use 'buntu 20.04? Last time I compiled Gimp was a Gimp 2.7 so that tells you how long ago that was. Added nearly a GB in devel files (I was using PClinuxOS at the time) Came to the conclusion then, not worth the added bloat, Although these days I would use a VM. Current situation, not looking promising. Thorsten Stettin could do with some help. I keep an eye on https://launchpad.net/~otto-kesselgulasch/+archive/ubuntu/gimp-stable-prepare for what eventually goes in the Gimp PPA. RE: GIMP in 20.04 - meetdilip - 05-04-2020 Thanks @rich2005 I am downloading this one. Is it ok if I go ahead and install ? Quote:There is the current 'stable' 2.10.18 get the one with plugins How to do I uninstall the previous app images ?

Just make sure it is 'withplugins' version These are self-contained files. To remove, all you need to do is delete the file. The User profile ~/.config/GIMP-AppImage/2.10/ remains. This means the newer version can use the same setup as the last one. If you want to start afresh, then delete that as well.

No, still on 19.10. Not sure the PPA problems are due to 20.04... the PPA has been stalled well before 20.04 came out. A complete rundown would duplicate a lot of the linked page. Of course I could go down to source management and compiler theory, but I think it's best if you try, stall, ask, and so forth. In addition to the page above, my environment looks like this (I have both 2.10 and 2.99...) Code: [top directory]
Code: #! /bin/bash Enjoy |
