[Gimp-developer] ANNOUNCE: GIMP 2.0.5

[Sven Neumann]

Hi,

GIMP version 2.0.5 is now available from

  ftp://ftp.gimp.org/pub/gimp/v2.0/.

The mirrors should already have the new source tarballs, so please use
them:
  
  http://www.gimp.org/downloads/#mirrors

Binary packages will soon be available from your favorite distributor
(debian sid has it already).

This is a bug-fix release in the stable GIMP 2.0 series. It is one of
the last, if not the last, 2.0 release before GIMP 2.2 hits the road.
A number of bugs have been fixed since GIMP 2.0.4. Here's a detailed
list of improvements:

- added sanity checks for misconfigured filesystem encodings (#149464,
  #150917)
- don't expose unnecessary information in Postscript files we generate
  (#149669)
- improved behaviour of Shear tool (#149467)
- fixed labels in CMYK color-picker (#150213)
- removed non-functional button from Device Status dialog (#150177)
- fixed parsing of SVG transform attributes
- guard against bogus logical screen dimensions in GIF images (#151053)
- fixed use of global context for stroke operations (#150716)
- avoid stack overflows when bucket-filling complex regions (#151124)
- fixes to the composite code (#149429, #147013)
- fixed run-with-last-vals mode for vpropagate plug-in (#151308)
- respect the global-brush setting when stroking
- fixed popup menu positioning (#152662)
- fixed handling of QuickMask color (#152937)
- fixed bounding box problems when opening Postscript files (#152829)
- fixed undo memory calculation for paint operations (#153035)
- work around file-descriptor leak in Pango (#143542, #148997)
- made menu entry translatable (#153456)
- use the global gradient for the airbrush and pencil tools (#153584)
- fixed PDB call gimp-curves-spline (#153635)
- fixed projection when undoing floating_sel_to_layer (#149558)


Thanks to all the people who have helped us to improve GIMP 2.0
further. This includes the developers who sent patches but also all
the users who submitted useful bug reports. Please keep up the good
work.


Happy GIMPing, Sven

Printing from GIMP, OSX

I just hope that the answer to this one is not so obvuous that I will be embarassed.

I have been using GIMP Print for some time (Excellent!) and I have now installed GIMP itself. 
Nowhere can I find any information about how I actually print from GIMP!
The Read Me that came with GIMP says it is handled by GIMP Print but HOW?
There is no print command in any menu and no reference to printing in any help file that I can find.

I tried reinstalling GIMP Print to no avail.
This is somewhat ironic, given that MacOSX Panther comes with gimp-print 
drivers and libraries installed. (I am assuming that you are talking 
about gimp-2.0 and MacOSX 10.3. For earlier versions it won't work.) 
Just make sure that you chose the optional package 
GimpPrintPrinterDrivers.pkg when you installed your system.

Apple wouldn't be Apple, however, if they hadn't omitted a crucial 
header file. You need to install gimp-print/gimp-print.h from the 
gimp-print project at some place where the preprocessor can see it. If 
you use Fink, install the gimp-print-dev package.
