Re: [Gimp-developer] Background color property for GIMP images
Peter (yahvuu) wrote: there's one solution i haven't seen yet: assign a background color to GIMP images. Not a layer, just a single color. This way, the eraser can always work on alpha, and all layers consistently can have an alpha channel. I like the innovative nature of the idea. but, I am not sure about how general purpose this idea is. - I would like to see some more thinking on how this influences the simplest case: importing an image without any transparency. how would that look like without introducing complication. simple things (in users' eyes) have to remain simple in the UI. - I would like to see some more thinking on how this is related to the background color in the color chooser. coupled/decoupled? --ps founder + principal interaction architect man + machine interface works http://mmiworks.net/blog : on interaction architecture ___ Gimp-developer mailing list Gimp-developer@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer

[Gimp-developer] why do I need babl to UNINSTALL gimp?
Hi, I just wanted to clean out multiple gimp installations and went to uninstall a gimp cvs build. make uninstall checking for gmsgfmt... (cached) /usr/bin/gmsgfmt checking for xgettext... (cached) /usr/bin/xgettext checking for iso-codes... yes checking for BABL... configure: error: Package requirements (babl = 0.0.23) were not met: Requested 'babl = 0.0.23' but version of babl is 0.0.22 Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you installed software in a non-standard prefix. Alternatively, you may set the environment variables BABL_CFLAGS and BABL_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config. See the pkg-config man page for more details. make: *** [config.status] Error 1 Do I really need to pull babl , build and install it just to UNINSTALL Gimp ??

Just another mystery for me The uninstall-recursive target is enumerated in the RECURSIVE_TARGETS variable. All recursive targets are defined in one place, look for $(RECURSIVE_TARGETS):. It basically calls subdirs and invokes the uninstall-am target, which is defined as uninstall-am: uninstall-binSCRIPTS uninstall-pkgconfigDATA.
