[Fink-beginners] Is printing from GIMP working or not?

[John E. Joganic]

This probably should be an FAQ question since there have been so many 
people talking about it, but so far I have not been able to find the 
answer or a working solution.  The print option is missing from the 
Gimp File menu.  Where'd it go?  How does one get it back?

So far, I've tried installing GIMP-print directly from their website.  
It works, but gimp still does not have a print option.  Presumably some 
interaction problem with the /sw installation and where ever GIMP-print 
decided to go.  There does not seem to be a Fink package for 
gimp-print... messages from around June discuss system-gimpprint and 
gimp-gimpprint, but neither exist in the current version of fink, or at 
least, apt-get does not find them.

I'm running OS X 10.2 (10.3 is in the mail somewhere.)

Just installed Fink yesterday, so it's pretty fresh...  The apt source 
list is appended.  Presumably its a stock installation, since I haven't 
changed it.

At any rate, excellent work all around.  I just got my first Mac on 
Friday, and getting it to run my Linux graphics pipeline would be huge. 
 Presently, I just need it to print PNG images while respecting the DPI 
settings on the image.  If anyone knows a quick solution for _that_, 
I'm all ears... I'll see what I can do with command line 
png-to-pnm-to-ps or something similar.

Thanks a lot, and great work!
