resynthesize without heal-plugins

[rich2005]

I tried something similar yesterday, grafting the python from the 2.10.18 'snap' into the 2.10.18 from the 'bunto repo. No success then, but looking at your archive I missed some files

First try: needed more permissions

Quote:Parsing '/usr/lib/gimp/2.0/interpreters/default.interp'
Parsing '/usr/lib/gimp/2.0/interpreters/pygimp.interp'
GIMP-Warning: Could not open '/usr/lib/gimp/2.0/interpreters/pygimp.interp' for reading: Error opening file /usr/lib/gimp/2.0/interpreters/pygimp.interp: Permission denied
..etc...

Second try: after upping permissions

Quote:Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/lib/gimp/2.0/plug-ins/python-eval/python-eval.py", line 19, in <module>

These the python2 support in 'buntu 20.04: https://i.imgur.com/1RUUunA.jpg

You can not even install Gimp 2.10.14 from the PPA - broken packages.

I dare say someone will come up with a backward support for python plugins, otherwise I can see ubuntu users going elsewhere. PClinuxOS is a rolling release and that manages ok.
Or as this wonderful remark in pixls.us quote - We should probably do a sticky thread in the gimp forum. “yes we know python2 support is disappearing and it is good My thoughts on that - expletive deleted.
