Have a look at the commit log for the gimp-2-8 branch: https://git.gnome.org/browse/gimp/log/?h=gimp-2-8 tl;dr: When creating and testing the 2.8.22 installer, Jernej found that the Postscript and MNG plug-ins crash on 32 bit Windows platforms. The decision was Mae to rather have no support than crashing plug-ins. Anyone who want to change this is invited to figure out why the crashes happen - the best way to start would be to be on the #gimp IRC channel on European evening to learn fron Jernej how exactly the filters were crashing. -- Regards, Michael GPG: 96A8 B38A 728A 577D 724D 60E5 F855 53EC B36D 4CDD _______________________________________________ gimp-developer-list mailing list List address: gimp-developer-list@gnome.org List membership: https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer-list List archives: https://mail.gnome.org/archives/gimp-developer-list
