Perhaps a too aggressive compression of the package? Very aggressive compression, and GIMP's install size is almost twice as large as that of LibreOffice. Probably the biggest reason for slow install is because both 32 and 64-bit versions are in the same installer, and when doing a 64-bit install, a lot of 32-bit version is also installed; I've been meaning to look into optimizing this, but haven't gotten around to do it yet. -- < Jernej Simončič ><><><><>< https://eternallybored.org/ > Trust only those who stand to lose as much as you when things go wrong. -- Chase's Rule For Success ___ 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

You can check the paths to these in the pluginrc that is typically stored in %appdata%\Roaming. Not only I'm aware of that, but this is the sole reason for the problems I described. If they were DLLs, we wouldn't have these problems, since the required libraries would've already been loaded by GIMP. I suspect that this person has not set PATH. For example, the nightly builds from darkrefraction.com just extract the tree of files and expect a user to run the run_gimp.bat batch file (which sets PATH). If one were to run gimp-2.9.exe directly in this case, the plug-ins that link to DLLs would not find them (e.g., the file format ones that look for libpng, libtiff, libjpeg, etc.). Like I said, if something put an older version of a DLL GIMP's plugins use to System32, PATH won't matter, as it's only checked after System32. -- Jernej Simončič http://eternallybored.org/ The number of errors made is equal to the sum of the squares employed. -- Transcription Square Law ___ 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

I have to move all of them to the Windows/System32 folder where they belong. Now, as some of team members pointed out, System32 sounds like he's on Windows 98 (with Windows 95 habits) rather than on 8.1. But is it correct to out .dll files there? And if it is, why would GIMP not work then? System32 is only intended for libraries that are part of the OS. Any installer that puts it's own DLLs there is broken. The problem here is that while gimp.exe and it's libraries are in bin\, the plugins are in lib\gimp\2.0\plug-ins\. GIMP does set the environment to have bin\ directory in PATH, but if there's a DLL with the same name as one used by plug-ins in System32, it'll take precedence (DLL search order on Windows is executable directory, System32 [SysWOW64 for 32-bit programs on 64-bit Windows], System, Windows, current directory, %PATH%). Since System32 has precedence over %PATH%, the plugins may stop working if an older version of library is installed in System32. For this reason, I suggest that once the plugin API is broken (GIMP 3?) that the plugins on Windows move to the bin\ directory, possibly with a different extension than .exe (or maybe a double extension - .plugin.exe?). This way they'll always use the libraries that ship with GIMP. -- Jernej Simončič http://eternallybored.org/ Machines should work.

Not easily, but possible: first you'll have to install Inno Setup (Unicode version) from http://www.jrsoftware.org/. Next, check out the entire installer directory from git, and open gimp3264.iss in Inno Setup. Scroll down to the [Languages] section, and add your language there - the line should look something like this: Name: pt; MessagesFile: compiler:Languages\Portuguese.isl,lang\pt.setup.isl (the compiler: prefix means that the main language file will be loaded from Inno Setup's installation directory). Press F9, and a testing installer will be created and run (the installer won't include any files, but other than that it'll behave identically to the normal installer). Later, if you change the language file, recompile the installer with Ctrl+F9 before running it with F9.

Now to the question. I managed to build the 2.8.0 release from sources for

This is for the executable but I'm also seeing larger gimp dlls.
The official builds are stripped to external .debug files. If you
don't care about debug information, you can just run strip on
executables and DLLs, or you could just move the debug info to
separate files with these two commands (run them from the root of
install prefix):
find \( -iname '*.dll' -or -iname '*.exe' -or -iname '*.pyd' \) -type f -exec

( I kinda doubt that the Gimp developers are going to let Elle Stone patch Gimp, as the chances are very great that Elle Stone would break Gimp in the process.) If you started by checking out the source from git, just run git diff lcms2.patch If you instead used the source tarball, it's a bit more work. If you only changed a single file, the simplest way to create a patch is to get the copy of original file, put it in the same directory as the changed file with a different extension (eg. file.c.orig), then create a patch like this: diff -u file.c.orig file.c lcms2.patch If you modified several files, it's slightly more involved: you will need a clean source tree (from the source tarball), and your patched version, each in it's own subdirectory. You should run make distclean in your tree (if you compiled from it), to ensure that none of the files that get generated during build are left behind. Assuming the clean tree is in gimp-2.8.0.orig/, and your patched version is in gimp-2.8.0/, you create the patch with: diff -Naur gimp-2.8.0.orig gimp-2.8.0 lcms2.patch -- Jernej Simončič http://eternallybored.org/ Assumption is the mother of all foul-ups. -- Tylk's Law ___ gimp-developer-list mailing list gimp-developer-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer-list
