On Mon, 18 Apr 2005, Barton Bosch wrote: I've been meaning to take another shot at learning how to compile the gimp from source for a while now. I'm running FC2 which has rpms available for almost all of the requirements and optional packages. Unfortunately the atk rpm is version 1.6.0 (www.gimp.org/source lists 1.6.1 as required) and the fontconfig rpm is 2.2.1-10 (2.2.2 required). Seeing how these are quite close and as you mentioned the parallel /opt configure method, I went ahead and ./configure, make and make installed. Gimp 2.2.6 did compile without error messages but didn't function properly. After opening a few jpgs and cropping them, it saved the first immediately without opening the jpg options dialog, and on the second and subsequent attempts to save jpgs it hung (though it did respond to the close button as opposed to requiring a killall -HUP gimp). So, two main questions: 1) is there a way to compile atk and fontconfig in parallel to the already installed rpms (as the gimp 2.2.6 was) and then pass a configure option or edit a script to have gimp use the new versions?; and, 2) when it became necessary to uninstall the faulty 2.2.6 I found that make clean from the source directory tried to erase files from /usr/local/ rather than /opt where gimp 2.2.6 was actually installed -- is there a way to pass an option to make clean to tell it to remove the gimp from /opt? Are /opt and /home/.gimp-2.2 the only directories (besides the untarred source directory) that need to be manually deleted? If there is nothing else in /opt then you can do an rm -rf /opt/* If there is someelse there the have a look in bin/ etc/ include/ lib/ man/ share/ and just rm -rf anything prefixed gimp-2.2 There will/should also be files called gimp-2.0.pc gimpui-2.0.pc and gimpthumb-2.0.pc You better find out where these are as if you had two Gimps installed you might be in big trouble as where your gimp-2.2.6 was looking for things.

If it installed and is working, don't worry about the latest and greatest. Normally the Gimp team will tell you when an upgrade is mandatory. I have not yet tried the yum update method recommended by Steve as running configure with a different prefix did work. I visited Red Hat's website page listing the gimp binaries once again but there are no 2.2.6 binaries over there. May be the yum update method downloads the relevant sources to your machine, analyzes all the dependencies and configure/make/make_installs all the files over the Internet. Any comments? Is it safe to carry out a yum update exercise from root? Or, can I also do it from a normal user account? Sorry I have no idea about fedora, and presumeably yum update is an automatic update procedure from Red Hat. If Gimp is working now my gut feeling is to leave well alone.

As a last resort, I downloaded gimp2.2.6sources but after reading a very long list of source packages in the INSTALL doc that 2.26 depends on, I have gave up. It's because I read that you have to have a different prefix if you want to install it parallel to your existing gimp installation. What is meant by Prefix? Further, even if I download all the files, that the gimp depends on, can I build them on my Fedora Core 3 parallel to the equivalent older versions already installed? It would be great if I could get 2.2.6 running with minimum hassle. I receive gimp-user list messages in an email-digest form so my replies won't be that frequent. OK, go to your gimp-2.2.6 directory type ./configure --help and have a read, even it it means little You will see how to install in another prefix, example ./configure --prefix=/opt will configure so that it is built in /opt When you press 'Enter' the program will start configuring. If you are missing any dependencies, it will stop with an error message. Read the error message and see if you can determine what is missing or out of date. You may have newer rpms (or whatever fedora uses) that you can use to upgrade. After you have all the dependencies, configure will run to the end. Then you typemake When make is done, type su -c 'make install' and that will install the program in /opt The executable will be /opt/bin/gimp (which will be symlinked to /opt/bin/gimp-2.2) If it doesn't work, you wont harm anything, so you have little to lose HTH Owen ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.xcf.berkeley.edu http://lists.xcf.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user

It seems that the pkg-config is getting inconsistent values for the

How do I remove the old version of glib?
My first suggestion is to build the latest glib-2 from source with
prefix=/usr and see if that fixes your problem. Otherwise if you want to
get rid of all traces of glib-2.0 do this.
First, see what you have.
Do a # cat /usr/lib/pkgconfig/glib-2.0.pc
and a # cat /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig/glib-2.0.pc
That will tell you where the program is looking, eg in my case,
[EMAIL PROTECTED] opt]$ cat /usr/lib/pkgconfig/glib-2.0.pc
prefix=/usr
exec_prefix=/usr
libdir=/usr/lib
includedir=/usr/include
glib_genmarshal=glib-genmarshal
gobject_query=gobject-query
glib_mkenums=glib-mkenums
Name: GLib
Description: C Utility Library
Version: 2.4.6
Libs: -L${libdir} -lglib-2.0
Cflags: -I${includedir}/glib-2.0 -I${libdir}/glib-2.0/include
Next go to /usr/lib and find what might be relevant there
[EMAIL PROTECTED] lib]$ ls|grep glib-2.0
glib-2.0/
libglib-2.0.a
libglib-2.0.la*
libglib-2.0.so@
libglib-2.0.so.0@
libglib-2.0.so.0.400.6*
You might feel inclined to #rm -rf libglib-2.0* and #rm -rf glib-2.0/
Then go to /usr/include and do the same thing, remove the glib-2.0
directory
If you read the .pc file, you will see there are other elements to this
mystery,
[EMAIL PROTECTED] include]$ locate glib-mkenums
/usr/bin/glib-mkenums
/usr/share/man/man1/glib-mkenums.1.bz2
/usr/share/gtk-doc/html/gobject/glib-mkenums.html
[EMAIL PROTECTED] include]$ locate gobject-query
/usr/bin/gobject-query
/usr/share/man/man1/gobject-query.1.bz2
/usr/share/gtk-doc/html/gobject/gobject-query.html
[EMAIL PROTECTED] include]$ locate glib-genmarshal
/usr/bin/glib-genmarshal
/usr/share/man/man1/glib-genmarshal.1.bz2
/usr/share/gtk-doc/html/gobject/glib-genmarshal.html
If you have come this far, you might as well remove those as well.
Then I suggest you repeat the same process with the /usr/local
installation.
In the end, go back and delete /usr/lib/pkgconfig/glib-2.0.pc and
/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig/glib-2.0.pc
That in theory gets rid of all your glib-2.0 stuff. Nothing will work now
as this library is fairly fundamental, so make sure you are working in a
console and re-install glib-2.4.6, but as I said earlier, just build it
from source in the first place.
All the above is untested, and my gut feeling is that I would be up for a
complete rebuild if I did it.
Good luck

If you plan in advance and call all your layers Big_Layer Small_layer Green_Layer etc then you can extract the names from the file with the strings command strings blah.xcf|grep ayer Not much help or use, but it gets the names Owen ___ Gimp-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.xcf.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user

THere was dozens of error messages during startup from the local dir about libgimpwidgets-2.0-104 couldn't be located. You do not give many clues! You are aware that 2.1.4 is a development version, and the README has words to the effect All hell may break loose when installing this program? Did you build it in a different prefix to your Gimp-2.0.4. If you didn't, then for sure all hell will break loose.

Re: [Gimp-user] How do i move a selection by x number of pixels
On Sat, 24 Jul 2004, Kevin Myers wrote: How do i move a selection by x number of pixels in any directions? Press the cursor keys x times?! Umm, that doesn't work real well if you need to move the selection by a reasonably large number of pixels, say 100 for example... Shift + cursor gives moves of 25-30 pixels at a time, but I don't know where that is set. Owen ___ Gimp-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.xcf.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
Re: [Gimp-user] Problem with GIMP or KDE?
On Wed, 23 Jun 2004, Steve Crane wrote: I'm having a little problem with GIMP 2.0.0 running on KDE. I know there is a later version of GIMP but I think that this may just be a case of GIMP and KDE not interacting well and there may be a setting (probably in KDE) that will correct it. I use the rectangular selection tool in fixed aspect ration mode to select areas for cropping. After I make the selection I sometimes need to move it slightly. As the Alt key appears to be bound to the window manager I use Alt-Shift to allow me to drag the selection boundary. I used to do this before with GIMP 1.2.3 on a previous KDE version with no trouble. However it now causes the keyboard to go into a weird state where key presses cause a beep and do not register. If you hold the key depressed for a little longer than usual it does register the key press and does not trigger key repeat unless you hold it even longer. I have 2.0.2 , Mdk10 with the latest KDE and cannot replicate your problem. However, I do have other problems with KDE and have now switched to Icewm where all my problems have disappeared! So I wonder if you try another window manager and see what happens? I have found that when I got a lock up like you, my escape route was to Alt+Ctrl+F8 which dropped me into a console. That at least allowed me to continue some background processes thought iirc killall X and restart didn't get me back(nor did Alt+F7), maybe do some experiments without your dial-up connection.
