JEM stated he was using OS 10.12.2

OS != OSX
OS could be openSUSE

[Gimp-user] OSX ps "unknown file" w/ ghostscript installed

[JEM]

I'm sure there's a stupidly simple answer to this but I can't figure it out. I'm
using GIMP 2.8.18 on OS 10.12.2 and despite having ghostscript 9.20 I still
cannot access ps files. I have no file-ps-load in the procedure browser.

I installed ghostscript via homebrew and linked paths. I've restarted GIMP
multiple times, have uninstalled/reinstalled GIMP and ghostscript.

When I try to open a vector, I get an 'opening failed: Unknown file type'
message.

My Plug-In folder points to usr/local/share/ghostscript/9.20/lib and also
GIMP.app/contents/resources/lib/gimp/2.0/plug-ins. The GIMP plugins folder has
all the built in ones plus some that aren't executable from other plugins I
downloaded (separate+).

Any ideas? This issue is similar to Bug 689657 from 2012, which was never
resolved.

Click the Start button, then click the down arrow (you should see "New
programs installed: 1" or something similar next to it) - you'll see the
GIMP icon there.

Closed but not forgotten

For Windows users there is a temptation to ***click-n-wish***, set the installer
running  and not look at any options.

For a desktop shortcut, which might be expected by some, the ***customize***
option is used. This gives the opportunity to set file type associations and
menu options.

A short 3 minute video, a demo in Win 10 but equally applicable to other Windows
versions.

I continued to poke around and click on various files and got GIMP to open.
Certainly not what i expected to do based on the screen message that had the
Finish button. Is it just me being stupid or does everyone else just know this
is what needs to be done?

This request for Help can be closed and I thank you so much!

[Gimp-user] GIMP changing colors in image.

[NewGirl]

Thank you so much! This gave us some great starts to trouble shoot. Haven't
completely solved the problem but have a much better idea why it's happening and
some ideas of what to do.

[Gimp-user] gegl segv

[damianc]

Update:

It seems I have a heisenbug. If I run 'gegl --list-all' on the command line it
SEGVs, however it runs without error under gdb, valgrind or strace. Adding in a
few g_message lines it seems it happens at g_module_open() in gegl_module_open()
when trying to open svg-load.so. I'm guessing it's not necessarily this code
which is at fault as memory could have been stomped on elsewhere, but I'm a bit
stuck as to how to progress further.

In gimp 2.9.5 the menu entry is 

colors -> desaturate -> color to gray

For incorporating in a batch operation? AFAIK since c2g does not show in the
procedure browser, it might not be possible.
