Re: Gimp doesn't start

[Christoph Kukulies]

Thanks to all. It works.

sudo port uninstall gimp
sudo port reclaim
sudo port install gimp +quartz -x11

did the job and the app starts fine from the launcher view.

You should report these "Failed to connect outlet" errors to the developers of 
GIMP so that they can fix them. We've seen these errors 3 years ago already, as 
shown tangentially in this ticket:

https://trac.macports.org/ticket/50680

Possibly. Is your DISPLAY environment variable set to its correct value (it is 
by default on Mac OS X 10.5 and later)? Do you get the same problem if you 
launch X11.app (or XQuartz.app) first?

If you want to do this, first uninstall all ports. There are some exceptions, 
but you generally shouldn't mix +x11 ports with +quartz ports.

I would suggest installing gimp by using "+quartz -x11" so that you 
don't get some of the dependencies built as X11.


Maybe uninstall gimp, do port reclaim, then retry.

Nah. This is not X11 related but Cocoa-. It means the underlying handling code 
for some UI elements is missing, which is rather strange. 
When you launch GIMP, do you (briefly) see the X11 icon popping up?

Did you installed GTK3 with the +quartz variant too?

Viel Glück :/

[Ruben Di Battista]

Open a new terninal and run `gimp` directly from the terminal and not from
the app directory... It's very strange.

Same picture. Clicking on the Gimp icon in the launcher doesn’t result in 
anything happening and running the app ./GIMP gives the same error message.

Try to install it with `+quartz` variant. I installed it like this on
Mojave and it works as expected...

Re: Gimp doesn't start

Christophs-MBP:MacOS kuku$ ls
GIMP
Christophs-MBP:MacOS kuku$ file GIMP

This looks like similar to the usual „cannot open DISPLAY“ in X11

I remember a lot of X11 dependencies being installed together with the GIMP 
port.

Well, when it would be so easy to just take the App from gimp.org, I’d think it 
wouldn’t be worth scratching head with this
but OTOH, with having the whole port install being done already I might be 
close to get it working.

Or, try downloading a native package from https://www.gimp.org/downloads/

Btw, Gimp now runs natively on OS X, no X11 is required.

Try to launch it from Terminal and look for error messages.

Say, like, typing a line like this at the prompt (note that “Gimp.app” is a 
wild guess):

/Applications/MacPorts/Gimp.app/Contents/MacOS/Gimp.app (use the TAB key to 
trigger autocompletion)

Also, did you install X11? I’m not 100% certain, but last time I checked GIMP

Gimp doesn't start

[Christoph Kukulies]

macOS mojave 10.14.1.

I did a port install gimp. In the end the icon is there in the Apps launcher. 
Clicking on the icon results in nothing happening.

Any ideas?
