Quote:...snip...Maybe but there doesn't seem to be an automated way to add new guides at intervals, they have to be calculated and created individually it seems....
....but that is what rhe grid-of-guides.scm script-fu does and does not depend on python. Same with the compiled plugin (if it works with Debian testing.) 50 second demo https://i.imgur.com/qioYhxN.mp4
First stop for python support is a small appimage:
Gimp-python appimage:
https://github.com/TasMania17/Gimp-Appim...-for-Linux
Try the one for ubuntu. Run it, if it works, it it starts the Gimp installation with python support. That is the one I use. (kubuntu 22.04)
The other appimage way is a full blown Gimp 2.10.22 (167 MB)
https://github.com/aferrero2707/gimp-app...4.AppImage and that will require fuse (fuse2) installed.
If you do not mind bloat and a sandboxed version then get the flatpak.
Windows Gimp in Wine ? Long time since I tried that, it was very flakey. For Windows Gimp, if you can get one is a Windows VirtualBox. Win7 will do.
