Hi,
I have FreeBSD 4.10 with KDE.
I installed Gimp from /usr/ports/graphics/.
I typed make prefix=/usr/local/gimp
It took a while and dowloaded a lot of other programms and installed them.
After that I typed
make prefix=/usr/local/gimp install
Again everything looked good no warning or error.
But /usr/local/gimp is empty !!
In /usr/ports/graphics/gimp there is now a folder called work and in that folder gimp2.0.6 folder.
Do I need to run ./configure from that folder And make and than make install ??? I could not find any gimp.sh file to start the programm.
Thank you for all the help
Laszlo

Try bringing up a command line with ALT-F2 in KDE and running "gimp"?
Generally speaking, .sh shell scripts aren't called to run installed programs. Instead, a link is tossed into /usr/bin or /usr/local/bin which points to(or, for a hard link, references the exact same data as) the installed program executable, wherever that may be. There are of course exceptions, but I very, very rarely need to call a .sh to get done what I need.
The work directory in /usr/ports/graphics/gimp2.0.6 is the working directory for the compile process. In graphics/gimp2.0.6 you may as well "make clean" to reclaim the space if you can get the installed program working. (If not, then don't do the make clean quite yet - you may need to, you might not, to fix the problem. And if you don't, then recompiling would be a waste of time.)
