Re: [Gimp-developer] Progress of Asset / Plugin manager
Happy new year, I have 2 questions about plugin manager and since there is already thread, I will use it. 1. Will the manager support binary extensions? ... Well scripts will run anywhere (I think), but binary (compiled) extensions are platform specific and there are some devs, that only creates extensions in their platform and don't care about others. Wouldn't that (platform support) be somehow marked in metadata? 2. Will the manager support dealing with dependencies (like if the extension requires some library I will download it or if no one uses this library I will remove it) or every extension will have to contain every library it needs? Thanks for answer.

Re: [Gimp-developer] Progress of Asset / Plugin manager
Ok, no problem... Yeah, the best way is to do without asking, but that is problem when you don't have skill :-D <=> that was also reason why I was asking in the first place - Gimp (its C code) is quiet hardcore and therefore there is so few devs capable (and willing) to contribute. Ok, thanks for making it little bit more clearer and have a nice Xmas holidays.

Hi, If in the past means 2/3 months ago, then yes. That's work-in-progress which I am resuming these days and I hope we should be able to have something in a few months.

[Gimp-developer] Progress of Asset / Plugin manager
I think Jehan did some work on this in the past. Is there some progress on this?
